Valley View Boulevard will narrow to one travel lane in each direction, between Alta Drive and Fulton Place, starting Monday, May 24, and continuing through August. The traffic changes are necessary as part of continuing work on the $11 million Oakey Meadows Regional Storm Drainage System Improvement Project.

Work will be performed weekdays during the approximate hours of 7 a.m. and
6 p.m. The traffic lane restrictions will be in effect 24 hours a day.

Decatur Boulevard is suggested as an alternate route for through north-south travel, as delays and disruptions can be expected on Valley View. Traffic on Fulton and on Alta near Valley View should not be affected.

Valley View should reopen to full access in September.

This improvement project is designed to help alleviate flooding that can occur during heavy rainfall events. Work started in January and will take a year to complete, as large concrete flood control boxes are installed in sections of Valley View, Alta, Fulton and Hinson Street.

Meadow Valley Contractors, Inc. is the contractor. The city of Las Vegas Department of Public Works is managing the project. G.C. Wallace, Inc. is the construction management consultant.

Funding is provided by the Clark County Regional Flood Control District and the city of Las Vegas.
