ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – Mayor Tim Keller took a ceremonial swing to demolish part of the Alvarado Transit Center.

Eventually, the city plans to shut down access to the pedestrian tunnel — a spot known for crime – and allows people to cross the railroad tracks using a ramp instead.

It will eventually be part of the Albuquerque Rail Trail.
