Construction Hits Local Business | Albuquerque News

Construction on I-25 in Albuquerque is finally nearing its end, but for local businesses like Nexus Brewery and Restaurant, the two-year roadwork has been a brutal toll. Owner Ken Carson says customer traffic has plummeted since the Montgomery Bridge project began, with even busy nights barely filling up. Yet loyal patrons like Gerald Burkhart are rallying support, praising the restaurant’s quality and urging others to come out and show solidarity. Carson is pleading with the public not to let the chaos of construction deter them — Nexus is still open, still serving great food and beer — and hopes things will rebound once the project wraps up next spring.
