I-11 Las Vegas

I-11 Feasibility Study, Kyle Canyon Road to Mercury Highway

In 2025, NDOT completed a Feasibility Study for the segment of I-11 between Kyle Canyon Road and Mercury Highway, including 15% concept plans and Planning and Environmental Linkages (PEL) documentation. This study was conducted to advance past decisions and determine what specific improvements are needed to convert US-95 to an access-controlled interstate highway.

I-11 Las Vegas Metropolitan Area PEL Study

The I-11 Las Vegas Metropolitan Area Planning and Environmental Linkages (PEL) study was initiated in early 2021, utilizing information and analysis already underway, to identify and evaluate reasonable corridor alternatives considered for I-11 through the Las Vegas metropolitan area. The reasonable corridor alternatives were evaluated during the process for environmental and social impacts, and potential avoidance, minimization, or mitigation measures were identified. The activities typically included in a tiered National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process were incorporated, including development of a project purpose and need, identification and evaluation of reasonable corridor alternatives, and analysis of anticipated environmental and social impacts. The result of the PEL process selected the central corridor (currently I-515 and US 95) for future I-11 interstate highway designation through the Las Vegas metropolitan area, between the Henderson Interchange at I-515/I-215 and the vicinity of Kyle Canyon Road on U.S. 95. The adoption and use of the PEL study in the NEPA process is subject to determination by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The result of the study will produce a joint FHWA and NDOT Decision Document that will state not only their approval of the PEL process, as is required for an appropriate PEL process, but also include the FHWA’s approval of the selected alternative.
