Valley-to-Vegas travel upgrade to reach halfway point in 2025: ADOT

Posted

A new freeway interchange designed to improve travel from the Valley to Las Vegas will be 50 percent complete during the new year, state transportation officials said.

The project in Kingman features “a new free-flowing connection” between Interstate 40 and US 93, according to a release from the Arizona Department.

Also in 2025, ADOT will begin a project to widen a two-lane section of US 93 between Wikieup and Interstate 40.

The $106 million Kingman interchange project will continue in the new year with new ramps being built to eliminate traffic backups and delays that regularly occur for drivers on the main route between Las Vegas and Arizona, officials stated in the release.

Traffic now must stop at a signal where Beale Street intersects I-40.

The project began in mid-2024 and is expected to be completed in 2027. The new interchange is designed to handle projected traffic growth for the next 25 years.

On US 93, work is scheduled to begin in early 2025 to widen a four-mile segment of the highway at Cane Springs north of Wikieup. The $80.6 million project will increase capacity between mileposts 106-110, with completion expected in 2026, according to ADOT.
