NM-4 is now closed at the main entrance of Valles Caldera National Preserve due to active firefighting activities on the McCauley Springs Fire.
Due to ongoing dry conditions and prevailing high winds, Fire Marshal Colorado Cordova of the Los Alamos Fire Department (LAFD) has elevated fire restrictions to Stage 2, effective May 28, 2026 within the boundaries of Los Alamos County to safeguard public health and safety, as well as protect lands, structures, natural and historical artifacts.
This project includes the removal and replacement of deteriorated sidewalks and curbs and gutter as well as the installation of new ADA compliant ramps along both the west and east sides of 9th Street from Myrtle to Iris Street . To minimize disruption to residents, the work is being completed in two separate phases. Work on the west side began on February 23, 2026 and was completed on March 20, 2026. Construction on the east side began on March 26, 2026 and is scheduled for completion on April 20, 2026.
