LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Crews are continuing to make progress on the Charleston-Maryland Storm Drain Project. Roadwork began in Oct. 2021 and is moving westward.
According to city officials, 15th Street at Clark Avenue, on the north side of the Charleston Boulevard intersection, is scheduled to be temporarily closed from Nov. 15 through Dec. 22.
Starting on Wednesday at 4 a.m., the intersection will be closed to through traffic. Eastbound and westbound traffic on Charleston will not be affected by the closure. Only residence and business access will be allowed on Clark between 14th and 15th streets. All through traffic on 15th and Clark will have a one-block detour.
Crews are scheduled to relocate a waterline, install a storm drain, and work on paving on 15th Street.
Starting on Friday, Nov. 17, Bruce Street will be restricted to one lane in each direction from Charleston Boulevard to Fremont Street. That closure will be in place for about two months. Motorists are encouraged to use Eastern Avenue or 14th Street as alternate routes.
Starting on Monday, Nov. 20, Carson Avenue will be closed at Maryland Parkway. That closure will be in place for about three weeks. Northbound and southbound traffic on Maryland Parkway will not be affected. To access Carson Avenue, motorists will need to use 11th or 13th Streets.
City officials said the overall project has been delayed by heavy rains and "unforeseen underground utility complications". They're anticipating the overall project should be completed by Summer 2024.
