What's Driving You Loopy? – A viewer complains concerning the Airport Connector Tunnels

LAS VEGAS ( KLAS ) – A viewer electronic mail is one in every of many complaining concerning the airport connector tunnels.

Kim writes:

“I in live Pahrump so maybe I’m not as sophisticated as y’all Las Vegas drivers. That being said, how come the airport tunnels are so dark? It’s frightening how dark they are, headlights or not. Especially going from bright sunlight to pitch dark. Your eyes barely have time to adjust and you’re back out in the bright light. Also: the lane paint is next to invisible and people drive stupid fast through there. That tunnel is a disgrace.”

Kim, if it helps, even of us from Las Vegas have made the identical complaints, all of which *could also be addressed. Finally.

For now, the almost month-long in a single day lane restrictions for tunnel upkeep are scheduled to wrap up Thursday morning (July 31).

There are plans to construct a flyover that can join the airport’s 2 terminals and separate airport visitors from drivers simply passing by way of.

The airport’s managing director of planning, Bryant Holt, has been quoted as saying:

“The brand new roadway, and connector tunnel rehab will likely be properly paved and properly lit, serving as an icon for individuals to see the superior engineering of Las Vegas. We will actually make {that a} showpiece.”

Thanks once more for writing, Kim.

Buckle up, drive rigorously – and please put down that telephone.
