Grand Prix Prep: Overnight Lane Cuts on Sands Avenue Resume Monday and Run Through November 13
If you drive the resort corridor after dark, the Formula 1 build is back on your route Monday night: Sands Avenue drops to one lane in each direction from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. through November 13, as crews finish the Las Vegas Grand Prix circuit ahead of the November 19-21 race weekend.
Overnight lane reductions for the Las Vegas Grand Prix resume on Sands Avenue on Monday, November 2, and run through November 13, according to the race-prep reporting read by the desk. Sands, between Las Vegas Boulevard and Manhattan Street past the Venetian and Sphere, will carry one lane in each direction from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. during the work.
The Sands work is the piece that returns this week. The companion reductions on Harmon Avenue and on Las Vegas Boulevard between Sands and Harmon ran through October 30, and the RTC of Southern Nevada has kept the Sands Avenue and Spring Mountain Road stops on Routes 119 and 203 closed around the clock since October 26. Track lighting on Sands is complete; barriers were still going up in the last track tour, and the Audrie Street and Top Golf vehicle bridges are complete.
The Grand Prix itself runs November 19 to 21 on the 3.8-mile Strip circuit. Drivers who work graveyard on the Strip, deliver, or run rideshare should expect slower trips on Sands after 9 p.m. this week and next; race officials post closure maps at transportation.f1lasvegasgp.com and the RTC posts detours at rtcsnv.com.
