ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – New green stormwater infrastructure was recently installed at Jefferson St. and Central Ave. with a goal to capture and reuse stormwater. This was a project designed by the City of Albuquerque, led by SIG-NAL, and funded by Ciudad.

This project was completed the last week of July and has been through one big storm so far.
