Drivers navigating the I-15 corridor in Nevada are facing a series of daytime ramp closures and overnight lane restrictions this week, as part of the I-15 South Widening Project aimed to enhance the freeway's capacity and flow between Sloan Road and Warm Springs Road. The Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) has detailed the traffic disruptions, which include the southbound I-15 off-ramp to Starr Avenue being off-limits from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. starting today through Friday, March 28, and the on-ramp at St. Rose Parkway facing similar intermittent closures until the end of the week.
Come nighttime, things will shift a bit—northbound I-15 gets squeezed into a single lane between Cactus Avenue and Silverado Ranch Boulevard, happening from 8:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. on Wednesday and Thursday, these restrictions are because they need to do soundwall work and put temporary barriers in place, also they are prettying things up with some landscaping, according to information published on NDOT's website. The off-ramp to Starr Avenue will remain intermittently closed during daylight through Friday, April 18, suggesting that road warriors should brace for sustained disruptions.
