If your travel plans include the downtown Las Vegas area this weekend, prepare for possible traffic impacts due to a Spaghetti Bowl closure.

The U.S. Highway 95 southbound ramp to Interstate 15 northbound will close to traffic from 8 p.m. Friday until 5 a.m. Monday, the Nevada Department of Transportation announced Tuesday.

The temporary weekend closure is needed for crews to make bridge deck repairs to the ramp, according to NDOT spokesman Tony Illia.

If plans call for you to travel through the affected area, plan for possible delays or seek an alternate route.
