Location & View Details
- Interchange: I-25 Exit 242 (US-550 / NM-165 / Bernalillo).
- Perspective: The Southbound view monitors traffic coming from Santa Fe and Algodones as it enters the Bernalillo “S-curve.” It specifically captures the merge point where heavy commuter traffic from Rio Rancho (via US-550) joins the interstate.
- Significance: This is a notorious “bottleneck” during the morning rush hour. Because US-550 is the primary artery for Rio Rancho, this camera is the best way to gauge if the merge is backing up. It is also a vital tool for checking winter road conditions, as the Bernalillo hill often experiences icing before the rest of the city.
- Nearby Landmarks: Located adjacent to the Santa Ana Star Casino Hotel and just east of the Coronado Historic Site.
