Project Overview
The Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) is undertaking a roadway rehabilitation project on U.S. Highway 95 in Clark County, improving approximately 20.41 miles from Milepost 17.442 to Milepost 37.849 near Searchlight. Work is expected to enhance roadway conditions and safety while extending the lifespan of this key transportation corridor.
The project scope includes milling and paving, new signage and striping, hydraulic and drainage enhancements, fence repair, and tortoise fencing to protect local wildlife. These enhancements will contribute to safer and more efficient travel for motorists along this arterial route, which serves both commuter and freight traffic.
Current Restrictions
A 24/7 work zone traffic control setup will reduce U.S. 95 to one lane in each direction for the remainder of the project. Traffic control will be implemented in a five-mile moving setup.
Daily (5:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.) Monday-Fridays, March 10 to November 25:
- Milling and paving operations on U.S. 95 between Milepost 17.442 and Milepost 37.849
- Tuesday, March 11 – Wednesday, March 12: No work will take place
- Traffic control will be lifted during special events and holidays
Motorists should use caution while traveling through work zones, and take alternate detour routes, if possible. NDOT works with Waze to inform the public about planned highway restrictions. The schedule is subject to change due to weather or other factors.
