Las Vegas, NV (KXNT) - NDOT crews will be closing down a portion of Desert Inn Road this week in order demolish a bridge.
Work began Monday morning to take down a portion of the U.S. 95 bridge over Desert Inn Road as part of the Nevada Department of Transportation’s $40 million viaduct rehabilitation project.
Desert Inn will be closed to through traffic under the bridge through August 29th. Access to businesses east and west of the bridge will be available.
The bridge will be demolished and reconstructed in three separate phases, which will allow NDOT to maintain three traffic lanes in each direction of U.S. 95 throughout the process.
The second phase is tentatively scheduled for mid-October. During each phase, crews will be working from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. due to the residential nature of the area.
