Project Description

Traffic signal, safety, and/or geometric improvements at the following intersections:

Robb Drive and Seventh Street near McQueen High School (In-Progress)

  • Replace the static school zone signs with an overhead flashing beacon system to improve speeding compliance and safety.
  • Install pedestrian ramps at the midblock crossing on Seventh Street east of Sapphire Ridge Way.

Mayberry Drive / Hunter Lake (In-Progress)

  • Replace the static school zone signs with a flashing beacon system to improve speeding compliance and safety.
  • Upgrade the emergency vehicle flasher for Reno Fire Station No. 5.

Greg Street / Kleppe Lane (In-Progress)

  • Replace traffic signal equipment that has reached end of life.

Baring Boulevard / North Truckee Lane (In-Progress)

  • Replace traffic signal poles and equipment that has reached end of life.
  • Replace pedestrian ramps.

El Rancho Drive / Wedekind Road (In-Progress)

  • Upgrade the northbound/southbound left-turn signal heads to allow for a flashing yellow arrow.
  • Replace the pedestrian ramps on the east side of the intersection.
  • Replace traffic signal equipment that has reached end of life.

Baring Boulevard / Goldy Way (Begins March 9, 2026)

  • Replace traffic signal poles and equipment that have reached end of life.
  • Improve lane alignment and striping.
  • Replace pedestrian ramps.

US 395 / Clear Acre Lane (Start Date TBD)

  • Modify the signal’s vehicle detection system to induction loops.

Robb Drive / Mae Anne Avenue (Start Date TBD)

  • Modify left-turn signal phasing for southbound Robb Drive. Change the shared through/left lane to through only to allow more vehicle movements to run concurrently and improve intersection efficiency.

McCarran Boulevard / Mira Loma Drive (Start Date TBD)

  • Add a right-turn signal phase to the McCarran Boulevard northbound right turn. This will improve efficiency by giving the right-turning a dedicated phase that can overlap with other non-conflicting intersection movements.

Calle de la Plata / Isidor Court / Silent Sparrow Drive (Start Date TBD)

  • Add a right-turn signal phase to the Silent Sparrow Drive eastbound right-turn. This will improve efficiency by giving the right-turning a dedicated phase that can overlap with other non-conflicting intersection movements.
