Starting at approximately 7 p.m., Friday, July 11, and continuing through the weekend, Jones Boulevard will be closed to traffic between Paseo Montana and Sheila Avenue. Jones will reopen to access by approximately 5 a.m. on Monday, July 14.

While work is underway, Michael Way, Rainbow Boulevard and Rancho Drive/Decatur Boulevard are suggested as alternate routes for north-south travel.

Traffic lane restrictions can also be expected as work progresses in the area of Jones Boulevard and Peak Drive, just south of Cheyenne Avenue.

These temporary traffic disruptions are necessary as crews continue work on a $4 million flood control improvement project. Construction started in February and will take approximately 11 months to complete.

JNJ Engineering Construction, Inc. is the contractor for the project that is being managed by the city of Las Vegas Department of Public Works. Funding is provided by the Clark County Regional Flood Control District.
