Moapa Valley planning aims at two new valley road routes
A Moapa Valley Planning Committee meeting at the Overton Fire House backed two highway projects. A new entrance road from I 15 east of Bowman Reservoir to Logandale Overton would straighten the route and spur growth while a second shorter link from Overton Logandale to Las Vegas would improve commuter access. Local officials stressed safety and fuel savings as essential for future development.
