Traffic lanes will be reduced on U.S. 50 in Mound House Thursday, May 15 as the Nevada Department of Transportation performs a routine bridge inspection.
Single lane reductions will take place on U.S. 50 in Mound House May 15 between 8am-3pm for routine inspection of the V&T Railroad overpass over the highway. Lane reductions will primarily take place on the eastbound highway in the morning, and the westbound highway in the afternoon.
• Drivers should expect moderate travel delays, and are advised to leave extra travel time.
• The work schedule is subject to change based on weather and other factors.
The lane reductions are for the bridges’ federally-mandated routine inspections. The railroad overpass bridge was last inspected in 2023, and was found to be in good condition.
