INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. - The Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) continues projects at Lake Tahoe on SR28 and SR431. Below is their mid-May schedule. The attached map also shows other work for both NDOT and the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) this summer. Work on the new traffic light and infiltration basin at Warrior Way/US 50 will be June-October. There will be parking restrictions on the highway for Zephyr Cove.

There will be no Saturday work this week on SR28 or SR431.

Traffic Control on SR 28

Night Work:
Residents and businesses along SR 28 through Incline Village can prepare for night work to begin starting Sunday, May 21 at 8 p.m. Construction noise will occur during nighttime hours. NDOT and Q&D Construction will be working to monitor and minimize noise-related impacts for residents as much as possible.

Working hours are from Sundays at 8 p.m. through Fridays at 7 p.m. (24-hour operations). All work is weather permitting and excludes major holidays.

Crews will be using a rock saw to trench and install ITS conduit along SR 28 through Incline Village (Northwood Blvd. to Ponderosa Ranch Rd.). Temporary patch pavement will be placed over the trench until the roadway is fully repaved later this summer. Drivers can expect the following for traffic control:

- Side streets in the work zone will be temporarily closed at SR 28. Follow detour signage. Side street closures will change every few days as work progresses through the intersections. Text alerts will be sent out the night before a new street closure. To sign up for text alerts, text the word "Incline" to 775-242-9168. You can also visit inclinehighways.com for closure information.

- Traffic will be reduced to a single lane through the work zone and controlled by flaggers.

- Bicyclists and vehicles will be required to share the same lane; Pedestrians follow detour signage.

- Speed reduced to 25MPH through the work zone.

Traffic Control on SR 431 (Mt. Rose Hwy)
