LAS VEGAS – The Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada (RTC) encourages commuters to plan ahead to avoid heavy traffic and delays during the coming Memorial Day weekend. Additionally, transit riders should note RTC buses will operate on a Sunday schedule on Memorial Day, Monday, May 27.

Travelers are advised to avoid I-15 southbound at the California-Nevada state line between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. on Monday, May 27, as heavy traffic is expected during this period.

“At the Southern Nevada Traffic Management Center, we see some of our heaviest traffic volumes of the year on I-15 as visitors head to Las Vegas for Memorial Day weekend. We urge drivers to plan their travel schedule outside of the heaviest traffic delays and consider using RTC transit or Bike Share to get around Las Vegas during their stay,” said David Swallow, RTC Deputy CEO.

RTC’s transit service includes the Deuce on the Strip, which runs every 10-15 minutes, 24 hours a day, offering convenience and flexibility for visitors and residents to the Las Vegas Resort Corridor.
