Downtown El Paso will be getting another makeover starting next year and will be completed in the Fall of 2019. A 3 lane Roundabout will replace the existing overpass of Santa Fe Street and Interstate Highway 10.

Many, if not all, have seen the massive traffic backups on Santa Fe Street during or after a Chihuahuas Game, Downtown Event, UTEP game or an event at the Don Haskins.

This roundabout will ease the congestion on I-10 and traffic already on the freeway will only have to slow down from 60 MPH to 40 MPH.

The existing over is about 20 feet above I-10 and this roundabout is impossible and inconvenient. If you haven't realized it yet this is a stupid April Fools prank but who would read all this unnecessary text. Share this post and piss off your friends on this great, unique El Paso Roundabout that will be completed in 2019.
