City Commissioners Push Bonanza Underpass Widening Plan

Las Vegas city commissioners urged the state highway department to widen the West Bonanza underpass to four lanes citing a 24 000 vehicles per day volume well above its 11 000 capacity and a growing western area. They trimmed a 46 840 assessment district for widening and refused a four lane plan that would shift bottlenecks to the underpass. Other actions included studying a land sale to North Las Vegas, bid openings on paving projects, sewer line extension to a nursing home, liquor license transfer, and ordinances to curb commercial vehicle parking on Main Street and in alleys.
