Drivers heading back to Southern California after spending Labor Day weekend in Las Vegas should prepare for heavy traffic on southbound Interstate 15.

The Regional Transportation Commission reported at 6:15 p.m. that the backup stretched for 7 miles, down from 21 miles earlier in the day.

RTC traffic cameras show traffic is backed up to the Sloan exits. All three travel lanes are nearly bumper-to-bumper as you approach Primm.
