Public input sought on Interstate 11 plan
October 12, 2012 - 9:54 am
The Nevada and Arizona Departments of Transportation will host a public information meeting on the proposed Interstate 11 and Intermountain West Corridor from 4 to 7 p.m. Thursday at the Henderson Convention Center, 200 S. Water St.
The departments are collaborating on a two-year study, which includes planning for a possible interstate link between Las Vegas and Phoenix - the two largest neighboring cities in the country without an interstate highway connection - and looking ahead to potentially extending the corridor north to Canada and south to Mexico.
Thursday's meeting will include a project presentation at 5:30 p.m., followed by a short public comment period.
Also at the meeting, NDOT and the Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada will have information on the Boulder City Bypass project and the "Connecting Nevada: Planning Our Transportation Future" plan.
