A portion of Tropicana Avenue in the tourist corridor will be closed to traffic overnight, along with a pair of freeway ramps.
The Tropicana Bridge over Interstate 15 will be closed to traffic from 11:59 p.m. Wednesday until 4 a.m. Thursday, according to the Nevada Department of Transportation.
The busy east-west highway runs from Dean Martin Drive to the New York-New York entrance.
The freeway ramps from I-15 northbound to Tropicana and from Tropicana to I-15 southbound will also be closed overnight.
The closure is necessary for utility crews to move the overhead wires that run across Tropicana on the east side of the intersection at Dean Martin. Work associated with the project includes improving the I-15/Tropicana interchange and widening the Tropicana Bridge.
In addition, crews will reconfigure Dean Martin in the area and add high-occupancy vehicle ramps to and from the Harmon Avenue Bridge over the interstate.
These works are part of the ongoing $305 million I-15/Tropicana project, which began construction in May 2022 and is scheduled for completion in mid-2025.
