The volume and speed of motor vehicle traffic using the Willow Wood Subdivision as a cut-through for accessing Sandia Labs, Kirtland Air Force Base, and the Sandia Science and Technology Park has increased significantly in recent years, creating a substantial hazard for residents, children and senior citizens.
As such, a committee was formed to determine the most effective solution to this problem.
It was concluded that installing a gate at one the exits to the community would be the best solution to controlling cut-through traffic.

The volume and speed of motor vehicle traffic using the Willow Wood Subdivision as a cut-through for accessing Sandia Labs, Kirtland Air Force Base, and the Sandia Science and Technology Park has increased significantly in recent years, creating a substantial hazard for residents, children and senior citizens.
Concerned parents are reluctant to allow their children to play outdoors and to ride bicycles on our streets and senior citizens are similarly hesitant about walking in the neighborhood. As a result, real estate values and our residents’ quality of life are being diminished by inconsiderate and dangerous motor vehicle drivers.
For this reason, we, the undersigned residents of Willow Wood Subdivision, request that the City of Albuquerque,
1) cede ownership to the Willow Wood Home Owner’s Association of the section of Tony Sanchez Drive between Jewel Cave Road and Gibson Boulevard and,
2) Allow the Willow Wood Home Owner’s Association to install a gate which would limit motor vehicle passage to the residents of Willow Wood by means of an automatic gate which would be opened by means of access cards, to be issued to all residents. It is understood that access by pedestrians and bicycles would be maintained, and the gate would only restrict motor vehicle passage.
