Project impacts

Located at the heart of the resort corridor, the I-15/Tropicana Avenue interchange serves as the gateway to the Las Vegas Strip. The combination of new resorts and professional sports has attracted more visitors to the city, drawing as many as 300,000 motorists on major holiday weekends. The widening of the Tropicana interchange will add capacity, improve accessibility to the Strip and allow for the future widening of 1-15 as the population continues to grow.

Upcoming Overnight Closure of Southbound I-15 for I-15/Tropicana Project:
The Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) is urging drivers to plan for the overnight closure of southbound lanes of Interstate 15 (I-15) and associated ramps on Monday, February 10. This closure is necessary to ensure the safe installation of a pedestrian fence on Harmon Avenue over I-15 and the installation of overhead signs. Work near the bridge’s edge requires precautions to prevent debris or equipment from falling onto the interstate.
