Commerce Street South Of Charleston Boulevard To Close
For Box Culvert Installation Sept. 21-Oct. 19
Project Is Installing Storm Drain Infrastructure On Charleston Boulevard From Maryland Parkway To Commerce Street
Starting Monday, Sept. 21, 2026, Commerce Street will be closed on the south side of Charleston Boulevard for approximately four weeks, restricting southbound travel as large box culverts are installed below ground as part of the ongoing Charleston Boulevard Storm Drain Project. Work is scheduled from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily. Charleston Boulevard will remain open with one lane of traffic in each direction. See the map with closures and detour routes.
Commerce will become a two-way street temporarily from California Avenue to the closure on Charleston during this work in order to maintain access to businesses along Commerce.
Motorists should expect delays. Oakey Boulevard and Bonneville Avenue are recommended alternate routes for east/west travel and Casino Center Boulevard and Las Vegas Boulevard for north/south travel. Main Street for northbound travel is another option as the box culvert installation at Main and Charleston has been completed. Access for residents and businesses will be maintained during construction.
The project includes the installation of storm drain infrastructure on Charleston from Maryland Parkway to Commerce. The project is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2027.
Harber Company, Inc. (doing business as Mountain Cascade of Nevada) is the contractor. The city of Las Vegas is managing the project. The estimated cost of the work is $49 million, funded by the Clark County Regional Flood Control District, Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada and the city of Las Vegas.
