Clark County fatalities down 25 from last year as enforcement, road design improvements show results

Days after a new fence was installed along Boulder Highway between Desert Inn and Flamingo, a driver drove right through it and tore a new hole. The hole serves as the latest in a series of challenges for the project, which sought out the new fencing to repair other holes ripped by previous drivers.

The corridor, roughly 530 yards long, has a posted speed limit of 45 mph and no marked crosswalks between 28th Street and Mojave Road. Police said all three pedestrians were taken to University Medical Center following the crashes. Doctors at UMC see the consequences firsthand of crashes around the valley, not just on East Charleston.

A metal fence installed along a deadly stretch of Boulder Highway has dropped pedestrian deaths from five per year to zero on that portion, prompting officials to expand the safety project.

While neighbors and advocates have been pushing for a crosswalk since March, a traffic safety expert said a different option may be under consideration by the Nevada Department of Transportation.

There's still about a month left of school in the Vegas Valley, and 347 students have been hit going to and from school. Four children have died. These are Clark County School District, private school, and charter school students, as well as children too young to attend school.

Tucked between the hustle and bustle of the Las Vegas Strip and the tall timbers of Mt. Charleston, Skye Canyon is being promoted as a community built around outdoor living, wellness and connection. The master-planned community blends modern new-build homes with natural landscapes and highlights access to outdoor activities as a key part of its lifestyle appeal.

Local police data confirm what anyone who has spent time near a Las Vegas-area school during morning drop-off or afternoon dismissal already suspects: e-scooters and e-bikes are everywhere — and children are getting hurt.
