Nevada officials are moving ahead with a $57.8 million freeway project near Apex Industrial Park.
It’s happening even though Faraday Future decided not to build an electric vehicle plant there.
A five-mile stretch of U.S. Highway 93 will be widened from Interstate 15 to Apex Power Parkway in North Las Vegas.
Work is expected to start by March on the Garnet interchange, and completed by the end of 2018.
Preliminary plans called for building a costly flyover bridge to Faraday’s plant, but that plan has been scrapped.
NDOT officials said they hope to see some growth soon at the Apex complex.
