New Border Connector Highway form Santa Teresa to Sunland Park in the Works
SANTA TERESA, New Mexico (KVIA) -- The final route for the new border connector highway has been picked.
The planned 8.3-mile border highway connector will be from Santa Teresa to Sunland Park, on the edge of West El Paso.
The route will begin at a new intersection, about two miles north of the Santa Teresa Port of Entry to Mexico.
It's projected to cost about $150 million.
The project aims to help residents get anywhere in the metro area faster.
