Stay in the left lane for US-82. This is the western terminus of that route, which goes all the way to Brunswick, Georgia.

Turn left in a quarter mile for US-82

Follow 54/70 west to Las Cruces and El Paso along the city relief route. Stay straight to head into downtown Alamogordo, and turn left for 82 east towards Cloudcroft

Location: US-54 and Relief Route, Alamogordo

Turn right for 54/70 and left for US-82. There’s actually some question as to what the non-relief route through Alamogordo is- it’s supposedly still posted as 54/70, but the AASHTO thinks it goes on the relief route, so that takes precedence.
