LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Is there an intersection in the Las Vegas valley that you feel is unsafe or has a high traffic volume? Here is how you can request a further study of the intersection and possibly have a traffic light installed.
According to the City of Las Vegas, the decision to install a traffic signal is based on a traffic engineering study and must follow federal guidelines and requirements.
The installation of a speed bump or other traffic calming measures requires an evaluation of traffic volumes, speeds, and crash history performed by the city’s transportation team. After the study, the city will make recommendations for the next step.
