Getting to Las Vegas will soon be much faster — that’s because the Arizona Department of Transportation is at the midway point of building a highway interchange between Kingman and Las Vegas.
Garin Groff is a spokesman for ADOT.
“By the end of the project, a lot of new features will be available all at once, including additional lanes and I-40 and on US 93 plus one mile of new ramps between those two highways, Groff said.
Groff says the 6 miles of new and widened roadway will be completed sometime in 2027.
Portions of US 93 will see intermittent nighttime closures.
According to ADOT, the project will also include:
- Widening more than a mile of I-40 in both directions between the new interchange and Stockton Hill Road.
- Adding a merge lane on US 93 northbound.
- Widening and/or rehabilitating four bridges on I-40.
- Building sound walls along a portion of I-40 to the west of Stockton Hill Road.
- Constructing drainage features.
