a major facelift for an historic roadway in the south valley -- bridge boulevard. stuart dyson reports on what the future could bring.

" i think that's really great and they should make albuquerque everywhere nice - not only bridge - but bridge will be a step forward to making everywhere else nice." " the facelift i think should start with the public sector first because i think it'll help drive improving the businesses that are adjacent to that location - if we do that it's like a magnet - it'll draw better business opportunities." we're talking about bridge from the river - west past five points to goff road.
