The Nevada Department of Transportation has completed the installation of pedestrian and safety enhancements on Highway 28 in Incline Village.

The project relocated a crosswalk on the highway west of Village Boulevard so it is closer to an existing bus stop and pedestrian crossing points. Pedestrian crossing warning signs equipped with rapid flashing beacons activated when pedestrians push the crossing button were added to crosswalks on either side of Village Boulevard. Street lighting and sidewalk ramps were also added, along with enhanced pedestrian crossing signs in advance of the crosswalks. Left turn lanes from Country Club Drive to Highway 28 were also installed with new traffic detection systems to help drivers most efficiently and safely get through the intersection.

Construction on the nearly $300,000 project began Sept. 8.
