LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Construction of a two-lane extension of Sheep Mountain Parkway connecting to Kyle Canyon Road will begin Monday in the northwest Las Vegas valley, according to a news release from the City of Las Vegas.
The $7.7 million project also includes repaving Kyle Canyon Road in the area. A paved detour will be put in place before work begins on Kyle Canyon Road.
Sheep Canyon Parkway will connect Iron Mountain Road to Kyle Canyon Road. The repaving project on Kyle Canyon Road will extend from Rufus Road to Alpine Ridge Way. Intersections at Kyle Canyon and Iron Mountain roads with Sheep Mountain Parkway will be improved, and the existing trail along Sheep Mountain Parkway will be extended to Kyle Canyon Road, city officials said.
The entire project is expected to take about nine months, with work scheduled from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday-Friday. Drivers should expect reduced speeds and one lane open in each direction between Rufus Road and Alpine Ridge Way on the detour during repaving. Residents with questions or concerns should call 702-218-5435. Las Vegas Paving is handling the work.
