Motorists should be prepared for traffic delays and detours as crews conduct overnight work associated with the Interstate 215 and Airport Connector Interchange Phase 3 project this week.
- The westbound I-215 off-ramp to the northbound Airport Connector and the Warm Springs Road on-ramp to the northbound Airport Connector will be closed from 9 p.m. on Jan. 12 to 6 a.m. on Jan. 13.
- The Sunset Road off-ramp from the northbound Airport Connector will be closed from 9 p.m. on Jan. 13 to 6 a.m. on Jan. 14.
The $49.5 million Interstate 215 and Airport Connector Interchange Phase 3 project includes:
- Widening the Sunset Road off-ramp from one lane to two lanes to provide additional capacity on the ramp for the traffic signal at the Sunset Road and Paradise Road intersection.
- Widening the northbound Airport Connector from three to four lanes between the westbound I-215 on-ramp to the northbound Airport Connector and the Sunset Road exit.
- Constructing a new ramp from eastbound I-215 that connects the northbound Airport Connector to a dedicated lane for the Sunset Road off-ramp. The new ramp includes a bridge over the on-ramp from westbound I-215 to the northbound Airport Connector.
- Realigning the westbound I-215 on-ramp to the northbound Airport Connector under the new bridge for the eastbound I-215 ramp to the northbound Airport Connector. The new westbound on-ramp lane will join with the two lanes from the northbound Airport Connector and the dedicated lane for Sunset Road exit to form the four-lane northbound Airport Connector section.
- Re-aligning George Crockett Road to the northbound Airport Connector on-ramp to increase the weave distance between the on-ramp and the new ramp from eastbound I-215.
Project details and updates, including a schedule of upcoming lane restrictions, can be found on the Clark County Department of Public Works website for Projects in Construction.
