New Mexico State Routes

I have started to work on adding the New Mexico state highway system to the Clinched Highway Mapping project.  I am looking for authoritative sources to document which routes currently exist and (ideally) some detail of their routing.  I have a useful but old document that used to exist at

http://www.nmshtd.state.nm.us/upload/images/CHDB/State%20Routes.pdf

A cached version of this is at http://wayback.archive.org/web/*/http://www.nmshtd.state.nm.us/upload/images/CHDB/State%20Routes.pdf

Unfortunately, this document seems to be several years old.

I am finding http://www.steve-riner.com/nmhighways/NMHome.htm to be helpful, but I would like something more official.

It appears that NMDOT's web pages were overhauled some time recently, so even the State Routes file I have is no longer available.  I have not been able to track down a more recent version.

Ideally, I would like to get my hands on the equivalent of New York's Traffic Data Reports (https://www.dot.ny.gov/divisions/engineering/technical-services/highway-data-services/traffic-data) or the official shapefiles I was able to find for Massachusetts.  Anyone know of a place I can get this kind of information?

Thanks.

Those are very helpful, thanks.  Apparently, I just wasn't looking in the right place (nor was Google).

I found them with Google; I have no idea where NMSHTD indexes them.

http://dot.state.nm.us/Data_Management/POSTED%20ROUTE-NM_Routes.pdf is as of March 2010, while http://dot.state.nm.us/Data_Management/NM_AADT_Listing.pdf is from May 2012.
The most recent update shown here, which I was hoping to use to update my web site, appears to contain routes that I know have been removed. Examples include all of NM-545 north of Alamogordo, NM-345 (Unser Blvd.) west of Albuquerque, and the north end of NM-47. I know that this portion of NM-47 was eliminated but I don't know what the new northern terminus is. Its route markings were removed when I was there last month.

I have a historical summary that I believe is pretty accurate at www.steve-riner.com/nmhighways/nmhome.htm. Warning: I haven't yet taken steps to block image links from Google Images, and so my bandwidth tends to be exceeded near the end of the month. (Hey, it's a free hosting service). Try after July 1.
