This article is about the most recent routing of US 366, deleted in 1937. For the routing of US 366 from 1926 to 1931, see
U.S. Route 366 (1926).
U.S. Route 366 was an east-west United States highway in the U.S. state of New Mexico. The highway's eastern terminus was near Willard, New Mexico at an intersection with U.S. Route 60 (named U.S. Route 70 until 1931). Its western terminus was in Albuquerque, New Mexico at an intersection with U.S. Route 66 and U.S. Route 85.
The route incorporated the entire route of U.S. Route 470 upon being assigned. The U.S. 366 designation was permanently deleted by 1938.
[edit] History
When the original US 366 was deleted in 1931, the designation was assigned to the route previously designated U.S. Route 470. This routing lasted until 1937, when outgoing New Mexico Governor Arthur T. Hannett changed the route of US 66 to bypass the state capitol, Santa Fe [1]. The new alignment of US 66 overlapped US 366 enough that the remaining portion, from Moriarty to Willard, became a state route.
