Mesquite, NV-

The Northbound lanes of Interstate 15 are starting to get fully backed up by the construction work zones, especially at the Virgin River Project on the Beaver Dam/Littlefield Bridge. The Northbound lanes are a “slow-go” on top of Mormon Mesa but travel is happening without stopping. The “stop area” is at the Bridge by the Beaver Dam Exit (mm 18).

Expect more than an hour delay.

The Southbound lanes are smooth sailing with some slowdown at the Beaver Dam Bridge but no stop and no congestion at the moment.

Also, a reminder, that crews have begun around-the-clock repaving work on I-15 south of Mesquite.

Paving will occur in both the north- and southbound directions of I-15.  The roadway will be reduced to one lane in either direction in work zones up to four miles.  Crews will work double shifts, five days per week during the paving operation.
