This multimillion-dollar project will reopen F Street underneath I-15 near downtown Las Vegas. Since 2010, the City of Las Vegas and NDOT have been working with elected officials and community leaders on a reopening plan. This effort has involved citizen input on the design, aesthetics and more. Construction will take approximately 20 months and finish in late 2014.

On Sunday, June 2, on the first phase of multiphase project began. Motorists can expect lane reductions and traffic shifts on northbound and southbound I-15 between U.S. 95 and Washington. The initial work consists of lane shifts, the removal of median barrier rail and high mast lighting as well as temporary paving for future Phase 2 lane shifts.

Changeable message signs will be placed throughout the work zone and the speed limit will be reduced to 55 mph in the work zone. Project work hours will run nightly from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m., Sunday night through Friday morning.

Starting at 7 p.m. Sunday, June 2: Work will commence on the northbound I-15 lanes between U.S. 95 and Washington. Lanes will be shifted to the right (east), with three travel lanes, one exit lane to D Street and minimized shoulders (two feet). In addition, rolling lane closures will take place throughout the night.

For the week of June 3-6: On Monday and Tuesday June 3-4, southbound I-15 lanes will be shifted to the right (west) and reduced from four travel lanes to three in order to restripe the southbound lanes. Rolling lane closures will also take place throughout the night.

There will be lane closures on the median side of northbound and southbound I-15 onTuesday, Wednesday and Thursdaynight (June 4-6) to allow for the placement of temporary barrier rail to create a safe work zone.

Construction on the I-15 Cactus Interchange Project is underway. This project will reduce congestion on I-15 in the rapidly growing sectors of the Las Vegas Valley and provide a connection for regional traffic for motorists traveling within Clark County, the city of Las Vegas and the city of Henderson. In addition, the project will provide an alternative route to the rapidly-expanding southwestern sector of the Las Vegas Valley. The total project cost is estimated between $62 million. Construction began on April 1, 2013, and is expected to be completed in Fall 2014.

As the project progresses, motorists can expect lane closures in and around the project area. Updates will be posted to this page and, in some cases, distributed via NDOT's social media mechanisms. Through the end of 2013, motorists can expect lane reductions and traffic shifts on I-15 between Silverado Ranch and St. Rose Parkway as part of the I-15 interchange project at Cactus Avenue.

Through the end of 2013: Northbound I-15 will be reduced from three lanes to two lanes between the Silverado Ranch and St. Rose Parkway Interchanges.

Starting June 3, 2013: Southbound I-15 traffic in the area will be shifted to the northbound side (eastern half) of the freeway. The northbound side of I-15 will be reconfigured to accommodate three southbound lanes and two northbound lanes. Upon completion of work on the western half of I-15, traffic will shift to the southbound side (western half) of the freeway.

Three southbound lanes will be maintained at all times except from 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. nightly, Monday night through Friday morning. Two northbound lanes will be maintained at all times except between the hours of 9 p.m. and 5 a.m., nightly, Sunday night through Thursday morning.

The City of North Las Vegas, in cooperation with the Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada, have been working to develop plans to improve North 5th Street between Owens Avenue and the Northern Beltway (CC-215), a distance of approximately seven miles.The goal of the North 5th Street Improvements Project is to provide an enhanced north-south transportation corridor along North 5th Street in the City of North Las Vegas. The $30 million bridge is part of the City's North 5th Street Arterial Project. The North 5th Street Bridge is expected to be complete this summer. Funding comes from the RTC.

North Las Vegas, Nevada -- Motorists will encounter varying lane closures of northbound and southbound Interstate 15 from Cheyenne Avenue to Lake Mead Boulevard, Monday through Thursday. Most of the lane closures will be in effect from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m., however, daytime closures will be in effect on Monday and Tuesday. Crews will be working on the North 5th Street Bridge over I-15.

This multi-phase, multi-year project will improve U.S. 95 from Washington Avenue to Kyle Canyon Road in northwestern Las Vegas by adding lanes, constructing interchanges at Horse Drive and Kyle Canyon Road and creating a system-to-system interchange between U.S. 95 and CC 215, along with other improvements, including aesthetics.

Phase 1, which stretches from Washington Avenue to Ann Road, is complete. Phase 4, which included a new interchange at Horse Drive and U.S. 95, was complete in 2011. Phases 2 and 3 are currently in the final design phases and will proceed when funding becomes available. Phase 5 is scheduled to begin construction in 2018 or later, pending funding. Phases 2 and 5 are in partnership with the City of Las Vegas; Phase 3 is a partnership between NDOT, the City of Las Vegas and Clark County.
