Interstates
Interstates in New Mexico are the following:
- I-10 Arizona to Texas
- I-40 Arizona to Texas
- I-25 Colorado to I-10
Other Important Major Roads
- US-550 Farmington to Albuquerque
- US-285 Colorado to Texas
- US-60 Arizona to Texas
- US-54 El Paso, TX to NW Texas
- SR-26 Hatch NM to Deming NM, critical for functional classification routing
State Highway Naming
The approved format for State Highway naming in New Mexico is: SR-##
Locking Standard
Actual locks used may be more or less than values in the table, depending on area circumstance. Please consult the RC, SM, or appropriate AM for guidance.
| Segment Type | Default locks |
|---|---|
| Freeway | 5 |
| Ramp | 4 |
| Major Highway | 4 |
| Minor Highway | 3 |
| Primary Street | 2 |

Functional Classification
Reference: Road names and Road types. New Mexico participates in the functional classification of roads.
NMDOT to Waze Functional Classification conversion
The New Mexico Classification and Color scheme comes from the official New Mexico D.O.T (NMDOT) Functional Classification (FC) map that is published by NMDOT. The legend shows what classifications NMDOT uses and what color is assigned to each class. The actual interactive State Map can be found here:

Deviations from FC
- Longer rural roads classified as "Major Collector" on the FC map should be set to Minor rather than PS to avoid pruning of valid routes.
- State highways that are classified on the State FC map as "Minor Collector," but are dirt/gravel, should be set to PS and have the unpaved box checked, instead of Minor .
- SR-26, Hatch NM to Deming NM, is set to Major to allow routing from I-25 south to I-10 west and bypass Las Cruces.
- Several non-Interstate highways in New Mexico are mapped as Freeway because they are constructed to Interstate standards:
- 11 miles of US-70 in the Las Cruces area.
- 12 miles of US-84 in the Santa Fe area.
- 5 miles of Paseo del Norte (SR-423) in Albuquerque.
