It's the latest closure put in place for "Dropicana," the overhaul of the I-15 interchange with Tropicana Avenue.
NDOT says that during the closure, crews will be demolishing the north half of the Tropicana bridge over I-15. The bridge will be rebuilt taller, wider and longer, with additional enhancements for capacity and safety.
There will be detour routes in place at Russell and Flamingo, but drivers are urged to avoid the area if possible.
Tropicana Avenue will also reopen Monday morning with two lanes in each direction.
Meanwhile, the ramps from southbound I-15 to Tropicana will remain closed for several more months as the bridge is rebuilt.
