NM 14 begins at an intersection with NM 333 in Tijeras. The intersection also serves as the center of the Tijeras interchange along Interstate 40 (I-40). The highway heads north through Bernalillo County, passing through the community of Cedar Crest to San Antonito, where it intersects NM 536.[2]
The highway continues northeast and briefly ducks into Sandoval County by entering from the south and leaving from the east. Now in Santa Fe County, NM 14 turns to the north. It intersects NM 344 west of Oro Quay Peak,[3] both of which are located south of the ghost town of Golden.[4]
