LAS VEGAS ( KLAS ) – An replace to a “Driving You Crazy” report from over the summer time.
Again in July we instructed you about three intersections the place the Metropolis of Las Vegas deliberate makeovers for pedestrian security.
They’re:
Sahara and Redwood, simply east of Rainbow
Rancho and Coran (between Lake Mead and Vegas Drive)
Nellis and Cedar, a block north of Stewart
Why these three? One of many fundamental causes: they’re all close to elementary colleges:
R. Guild Grey close to Sahara and Rainbow
Detwiler close to Rancho and Lake Mead
Rundle close to Nellis and Stewart.
Quick ahead to as we speak the place drivers on Sahara simply east of Rainbow have to barter cones for what will likely be that model new crosswalk at Redwood, just a few blocks from Grey Elementary.
Probably the most seen of the enhancements will likely be pedestrian flashing lights and placing in what are referred to as “median crossing refuge areas,” which the Federal Freeway Administration says can scale back pedestrian crashes by 32%.
The street work is generally at night time, from 9pm to five every following morning.
The $2.5 million triple location venture is meant to be completed in March of subsequent yr.
Buckle up, drive rigorously – and, please put down that cellphone!
