A ramp on Nevada’s busiest freeway interchange will close for a road project over the weekend in advance of a monthlong lane restriction.

The Nevada Transportation Department has announced that the northbound U.S. Highway 95 ramp to northbound Interstate 15 at the Spaghetti Bowl will be closed from 8 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Monday.

Crews will be working to demolish a bridge barrier rail, a part of the $13.6 million F Street reopening project beneath I-15 that is being conducted by the department and the city of Las Vegas.

Motorists are being asked to take the northbound U.S. 95 Rancho Drive exit as a detour.
