State Road 2001

State Road 2001
Location: Alamogordo
Length: 0.3 mi[3] (0.5 km)

State Road 2001 (NM 2001) was a 0.3-mile (0.48 km) long state highway located entirely in Alamogordo. The highway began at Scenic Drive and ended at the New Mexico Museum of Space History. NM 2001 was one of the few "orphan" routes in the State Road system, as it did not connect to any other State Road. The number appears to be a reference to the book 2001: A Space Odyssey by Arthur C. Clarke. The exact dates of existence are unknown, but the highway was established in the 1990s and the signage remained present as of 2008. The only hints to NM 2001 being retired is the absence of the route from current NMDOT highway logs.[3] The official website for the Space Museum still lists its address at "Highway 2001".[18]
