Just east of Albuquerque and near the village of Tijeras, New Mexico, there lies a length of Route 66 that has a series of grooves cut into it (also known as a rumble strip) and if you drive over them at exactly 45 MPH, the sound of your vibrating tires will play a portion of America the Beautiful! Apparently, this was a project that the National Geographic Society worked on in conjunction with the New Mexico Department of Transportation for a series they were doing called Crowd Control and the purpose of it was to develop a way to encourage drivers to slow down. In this short video, you'll get to see Cindy and I drive over this Musical Road in our Jeep Renegade and you'll get to hear the tune being played.
The Singing Road of New Mexico - Rt 66 Sings America the Beautiful
introduces the newest of only two singing roads in the USA! Built by National Geographic as a part of their new Nat-Geo TV show Crowd Control, a short section of Route 66 has specially designed rumble strips that turn the Mother Road into a record and your car into a phonograph, of sorts. Just a few miles east of Four Hills. Enjoy driving safely in New Mexico!
New Mexico's singing highway plays 'America The Beautiful'
Just outside of Tijeras, New Mexico is one of only two "singing roads" in the United States. Installed and paid for by National Geographic as part of their 'Crowd Control' series, it plays 'America the Beautiful' when you do the speed limit. So cool!

New Mexico Musical Highway Plays America the Beautiful
A short stretch of road along Route 66 / Hwy 333 near Tijeras plays the end of America the Beautiful. The second black stretch you can see originally played the Nationwide jingle, and now, thankfully, it doesn't.
From my blog EatingNewMexico

Musical Road in New Mexico
The musical road between Albuquerque and Tijeras, New Mexico. A two-lane stretch of U.S. Highway 66 (Route 66) with grooves in the roadway (rumble strips) arranged to cause the sounds of the song America the Beautiful. Heard when vehicles drive on it at 45 mph, this video was shot through the windshield and a camera hung by the front-passenger side tire. Built in October 2014.

This Japanese music road in Fuji sounds incredible!
Help us explore the world and we will love you forever! ►
The song that the road produces ►
When driving through the countryside of Japan we heard our tires make music at a certain point. We both looked at each other and threw the car 180 degrees around. At the start of the road, we saw a little sign saying that it was a music road in Japanese. We pulled the car over immediately and wiped out the cameras to make a movie about it. This was a strange and incredible occurrence to just drive over a music road like this in the middle of nowhere. We hope you enjoyed this little gimmick and we welcome you to the channel if you are new. We make movies about abandoned and interesting places around the world. Kisses Lesley and Jordy XxX

Musical Road- Lancaster, CA
Dashcam video as I drove on the Musical Road in Lancaster, CA. The road has grooves or rumble strips engineered so that when you drive over them, they produce the sound of music under your tires. This tune is apparently from a portion of the William Tell Overture, the theme song for the Lone Ranger.
It's a bit of a stretch, but you can kind of hear it. And regardless, it's pretty cool. One of the few roads of its type in the world.

Musical Road on Old Route 66 Near Tijeras NM on 15 Oct 2014
On 28 Sep 2014 I went to the East Mountain Celebration in Tijeras, NM. To get there from my house, I took Old Route 66. As I was driving along, I thought I heard music coming from my tires. At the time I assumed it was my imagination since I had not seen any signs (they may not have been there yet). On 1 Oct the Musical Road made the news. What I heard was real! Yesterday, I went to the Tijeras Pueblo site. On the way, I recorded the music. It comes from specially made rumble strips when you go 45 mph. The song is America the Beautiful. There are only a few such musical roads in the world. This one was donated by the National Geographic Channel to be part of a new series on human behavior. Although the eastbound speed limit is 55 mph at the Musical Road site (near mile marker 5 on NM-333), it soon changes to 45 mph as you approach the village of Tijeras. There is a short musical rumble strip immediately east of the main one, but I cannot discern what it plays.

Team Adventure Buddies are half way through their road trip! They make a quick stop at the Four Corners Monument and learn about flint knapping arrows. Then they get to hear Route 66 sing them a song.
