Lane closures, delays on SR 339 south of Yerington

Lane closures and travel delays will begin Monday, Sept. 23 on sections of State Route 339 south of Mason and Yerington as the Nevada Department of Transportation resurfaces the roadway.

Through November, lane closures will be in place from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. weekdays on sections of the road between Rebbecka Drive and the State Route 208 intersection south of Mason. Pilot cars will alternate directions of traffic through the work zone as the road is resurfaced, with up to 30-minute delays to be expected.

Side roads and driveways will remain accessible during construction, with brief access interruptions as paving takes place. Residents should also anticipate increased construction-related heavy truck traffic on Second Street as construction materials are hauled to and from the project area.

Drivers are advised to plan alternate routes and avoid the area if possible. Through traffic will be able to use State Route 208 as a nearby alternate route.

Over-dimensional vehicles over 12-feet wide will be prohibited on the section of roadway until construction completes.

Roadway cattle guards will also be replaced, and roadway drainage improved.
