The Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) has announced upcoming lane reductions and shifts on State Route 227 (Lamoille Highway) at Boyd-Kennedy Road from March 15 to March 19, 2025. These temporary traffic changes will allow NDOT to analyze work zone set-up and traffic mobility in preparation for a new roundabout installation later this spring.
Traffic Impact & Schedule:
- SR 227 reduced to one lane in each direction between Corral Lane and Martin Avenue from 7:00 AM, March 15, to 7:00 AM, March 19
- Roadside shoulder closures
- Speed limit reduced to 35 mph in the affected area
- Moderate travel delays expected
- Lane closures subject to weather conditions
Additional Project Improvements:
- New pedestrian crosswalks linking to the multi-use path on the north side of the road
- Acceleration and deceleration lanes at Lamoille Highway and Trescartes Avenue, as well as at Spring Creek High School
- New LED lighting and advanced roadway signage for enhanced visibility
- Decorative landscape artwork featuring metal cutouts of Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep and mountain lions, along with native plants, decorative rock, and concrete elements
- Permanent speed adjustments: Lamoille Highway approaching the roundabout will have a 45 mph posted limit, with a 25 mph advisory speed within the roundabout
Drivers should anticipate similar lane shifts and reductions once construction officially begins this spring.
