Weekly Update ~ 6.5.26

No Parking in Red Bus/Bike Lanes

Beginning Sunday, June 7, buses will be using the designated bus/bike lanes for Route 109 (north of Sahara) and BHX (on Carson). These routes run along Maryland Pkwy, Carson Ave, and Bonneville Ave. Drivers may enter the red lanes briefly to make right turns, but the bus/bike lanes are not to be used for through traffic or parking. Thank you for your cooperation as we work to provide timely, accessible transit service.

City of Las Vegas portion reaches substantial completion

We are excited to announce that the portion of the project in the City of Las Vegas (north of Sahara through downtown and into the Medical District) has reached substantial completion! Crews still have punch list items to address, but the majority of construction is complete. The remainder of the project will reach substantial completion this fall.

Safe. Comfortable. Accessible Connections!
