I drive this area quite a bit and now that its pretty much done and we now have a nice new freeway to drive on. I like the new design that really gets rid of the bottle necks by sending traffic via "frontage type roads" and the use of metered lights. There also seems to be a lot less accidents until you get to about Sahara.

I don't think the Sahara exit of I-15 is "smooth sailing." Still too many dumbasses trying to change four lanes at the last minute.

They're too stupid to drive to the next exit (Charleston) and backtrack. Hell no. They MUST get off at Sahara, safety be damned.

The Drive from St. Rose Parkway/Southern Highlands north is a breeze until you get to Sahara (this is where the express lane ends) There use to be large bottle necks (I-215/15) to Russel use to be bad.

Sadly, the merge 95 S to 15 S remains a cluster **** no matter what. Three exit lanes merge into one which then doubles as an on-ramp and exit for Charleston.

This was area was not part of the project that I was talking about but the 95/summerlin parkway interchange is much smoother now compared to just a year ago. They need to work on the 95/15 (spaghetti bowl) interchanges in the future. Our roads are actually pretty good compared to other cities similar in size. I use to live in Silicon Valley and its pot hole city there.
