New Mexico State Road 448
Route description
NM 448 begins at the three-way intersection between Coors Road, Coors Boulevard, and Coors By-Pass in northwestern Albuquerque, heading to the north-northeast on Coors Road. Shortly after intersecting NM 528 at Alameda Boulevard, the route crosses from Bernalillo County into Sandoval County, where it is known as Corrales Road. The route proceeds northeast through Corrales before turning to the northwest. It enters the city limits of Rio Rancho before coming to its northern terminus at the Pat D'Arco Highway (NM 528).
History
Until 2012, this route also included a portion of Coors Boulevard between St. Joseph's Drive and its current southern terminus at Coors By-Pass. This segment has since been replaced by NM 45, which now includes all of Coors Boulevard south of Coors By-Pass; the portion of Coors Boulevard between Old Coors Road and St. Joseph's Drive was previously locally maintained.
