During the construction of Route 66, Governor Hannett changed the planned road to bypass Santa Fe.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The original Route 66 ensued the pre-existing Old Santa Fe Trail dating to 1822, and while it passed by many realignments across the years, none was so petty. Next to losing reelection in 1927, a sociable governor, Arthur T. Hannett took retribution by accelerating through a realignment plan that bypassed the capital of Santa Fe.
The major central recent route was completed with the paving of Route 66 in 1937.Santa Fe is yet making little despite Hannett's revenge, though it is possibly not as crowded as it would've been otherwise.
