KOB-TV.com - By: Magdalena Sharpe, - The Coors/Interstate 40 interchange has officially been named after Governor Bill Richardson. The Department of Transportation approved the naming Thursday. The $91 million interchange was funded through GRIP, Governor Richardon's Investment Partnership, in 2003. A spokesperson for the department of transportation says it's too early to know how much the naming will cost. It's not too soon, however, for some people to have formed their own opinions. "I think it's a little far fetched. If you are going to name it, name it after a soldier or somebody who has done something for the city. Bill Richardson, I think enough has been done for him," said local resident Anthony Montoya. On the other side of the issue, Linda Saunders, another area resident, agrees with the name. "I think it's a pretty good name. Governor Richardson had done a lot for the State of New Mexico. He's brought a lot of jobs in....so I think it's pretty good," Saunders said.
