NDOT nearly done with $1.2 million South Carson Street resurfacing project
The Nevada Department of Transportation is nearly finished with a $1.2 million project to resurface and improve South Carson Street south of Fairview Drive, the agency announced Friday.
Around two miles of South Carson Street between Fairview Drive and Overland Street in Carson City were microsurfaced for enhanced roadway smoothness and durability. The improvements help protect and prolong pavement life by resealing the roadway with a new top layer, according to NDOT. Certain sidewalk ramps were also enhanced for better accessibility.
The approximately $1.2 million project by Sierra Nevada Construction began on July 17. This section of Carson Street was last resurfaced in 2002.
The roadway currently serves as a freeway connection for those traveling between the I-580 Carson City Freeway and south of Carson City.
The improvements will help preserve the roadway surface of the segment of South Carson Street before it is moved from state ownership to Carson City ownership in 2017. An average of 44,000 vehicles daily travel the road daily.
