For Immediate Release

 

Road Resurfacing Is Planned For Village Center Circle, Hills Center Drive And Town Center Drive
Intermittent Traffic Lane Restrictions And Closures Start Monday, May 10

 

Starting Monday, May 10, and continuing through the next two months, traffic lane restrictions will be in effect intermittently on Village Center Circle, on Hills Center Drive between Village Center and Lake Mead Boulevard, and on Town Center Drive between Village Center and Summerlin Parkway.

There will be temporary traffic lane restrictions within work zones. Traffic restrictions may be in effect weekdays and on weekends on a 24-hour basis. These disruptions are necessary as work on preventative roadway maintenance continues. The project includes milling and resurfacing the roadways to extend the life of these three heavily traveled streets. During the milling process, before placement of the overlay, there will be a rough milled surface that may cause difficulties for bicyclists in these areas. Use of an alternate route is suggested.  

Village Center Circle, Hills Center Drive and Town Center Drive will reopen to full access when work in each section is completed and during some weekends. Curbs, gutters and sidewalks were removed and replaced, and sidewalk ramps were upgraded to meet current Americans with Disabilities Act standards. The improvements should be completed this summer.

Southern Nevada Paving is the contractor. City of Las Vegas Department of Field Operations personnel are managing the project. Funding is provided by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
