Motorists who use the airport connector tunnel for their overnight or early-morning commute may want to consider a different route this month.
Overnight maintenance work is planned at the northbound airport connector tunnel from 11:55 p.m.-5 a.m. Sundays through Thursdays through Oct. 25, McCarran International Airport announced.
The northbound tunnel will be down to one lane during work hours; work began Friday.
“Anyone trying to get to the airport for early departures will need to give themselves more time than usual,” said Christine Crews, airport spokeswoman. “We anticipate this will impact early morning commuters.”
