Nighttime traffic lane restrictions and intermittent road closures can be expected this week along the three-block section of Fremont Street that is east of Las Vegas Boulevard.
Starting tonight and continuing through Friday night and Saturday morning, August 11, during the hours of midnight and 8 a.m., traffic lane restrictions will be in effect in work zones on Fremont Street between Las Vegas Boulevard and Eighth Street. Temporary road closures may also occur on Fremont Street this week.
These temporary changes to traffic flow are necessary as work continues on the $5.5 million Fremont East District Streetscape Improvement Project by the city of Las Vegas. Fremont Street will reopen to full access of one travel lane in each direction by 8 a.m. each day. Ogden and Carson avenues are suggested as alternate east-west travel routes while work is underway.
The $5.5 million Fremont East District Streetscape Improvement Project includes construction of a new Fremont Street featuring three blocks of streetscape between Las Vegas Boulevard and Eighth. Neon gateways, neon elements placed in new median islands, decorative signage, expanded sidewalks, landscaping, lighting, banners and bronze medallions embedded in the sidewalks make up this project by the city of Las Vegas Department of Public Works. Las Vegas Paving is the contractor. The entire project is slated for completion later this month.
