A trio of ramp closures in downtown Las Vegas are scheduled to occur overnight this week.

The Nevada Department of Transportation announced the following overnight closures on Thursday:

— The ramp connecting U.S. Highway 95 northbound to Interstate 15 southbound will shut from 10 p.m. Thursday until 4 a.m. Friday.

— The Charleston Boulevard on-ramp to I-15 southbound will close from 10 p.m. Thursday until 5 a.m. Friday.

— The ramp from Martin Luther King Boulevard southbound to Charleston Boulevard westbound will close from 7 p.m. Thursday until 6 a.m. Friday.

The temporary closures are needed for electrical work and sign installation as part of Project Neon, the nearly $1 billion 4-mile-long widening of I-15 from the Spaghetti Bowl to Sahara Avenue.

Project Neon is 93 percent finished and scheduled for substantial completion in July.
