COUNTY News:

The Los Alamos County Traffic & Streets Division will be turning off the power to some neighborhood streetlights to enhance the viewing of holiday farolitos.

The streetlights will be turned off starting this evening, Dec. 20 and restored Thursday, Dec. 26.

Turning off streetlights is by request only. To make a request, contact the Los Alamos County Traffic and Streets Division at 505.662.8113 or Aaron Park at aaron.park@lacnm.us.

For safety purposes, the Traffic & Streets Division requests that all vehicles and trailers be moved to off-street parking for the full time that the streetlights will be off. If this is not possible, it is recommended that the vehicles and trailers be silhouetted by farolitos.

Due to the limited sight visibility during the viewing, drivers are requested to travel all viewing areas at a maximum of 15 miles per hour.

Streets include:
