Northwest Las Vegas Traffic Study
Channel: Northwest Las Vegas
Date: 2023-01-27

The City of Las Vegas and the Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada welcome you to the Northwest Las Vegas Traffic Study virtual meeting. The purpose of this study is to help reduce current and future delay within the rapidly growing northwest region of the City of Las Vegas. 

Bounded by Buffalo Drive to the east, and Centennial Parkway to the south, this area has grown at an astounding rate, and we anticipate traffic volumes will increase by 44-percent by 2040. Coordinated transportation improvements are critical to keep up with this growth and help provide equitable access to services, education, employment and more.
The study team has already evaluated the existing transportation network, estimated future traffic volumes, identified bottlenecks and other traffic challenges, and developed possible solutions. 
While Durango Drive, Buffalo Drive and Elkhorn Road show the most potential congestion, Grand Teton Drive and Hualapai Way are the most sensitive to the future Sheep Mountain Parkway. 

Whether you live, work, or play in the area, you know it better than anyone. And you understand where new traffic signals, turn lanes and other traffic improvements might make the most impact. 

We hope you’ll share your input to make sure this plan includes what your community needs.

Growth in the northwest area of the City of Las Vegas is exciting and it is important that the transportation system supports both current and future growth. With your help, we can ensure a plan that keeps Las Vegas moving.
