What's Driving You Crazy? – Another complete closure of the 215 beltway in the southwest valley
In June of last year Clark County started a year-long project to build a bridge connecting Peace Way from Ft Apache west of the beltway to a little street called Chessie Ct a few blocks west of El Capitan.
The first full closure back in December lasted a whole weekend.
The second one in February was 'just' 24 hours, and that's what Clark County says will be the case again this weekend, meaning you should probably avoid the area from 9 Friday night to 9 Saturday night,
Workarounds? You can get on the northbound beltway from Flamingo just west of Ft Apache, and southbound from Tropicana just east of Ft Apache.
All lanes in both directions should be back open by 10 Saturday night.
The $20 million dollar project also includes other work on Peace Way between Hualapai and Cimarron.

And while we're talking weekend traffic nightmares, don't forget tens of thousands of people heading to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Friday, Saturday and Sunday night – then sliding back down into the city in sunrise hours each following morning for this year's Electric Daisy Carnival.
Buckle up, drive carefully – and, please put down that phone!
