Las Vegas operates protected and buffered bike lanes downtown and along key arterials, supported by RTC complete-streets standards and a Vision Zero plan to eliminate traffic deaths.
The City of Las Vegas Public Works builds bike lanes following RTC complete-streets guidelines, including buffered lanes on streets like Bonneville Avenue and protected lanes near downtown. The 2017 Las Vegas Vision Zero action plan commits to engineering, education, and enforcement strategies aimed at eliminating traffic fatalities. Drivers must give cyclists at least three feet of passing room under Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 484B, and cyclists must obey traffic signals. Some downtown lanes use green paint and bollards. New road projects must consider bicycle accommodations during scoping.
Drivers who fail to provide three feet when passing or who block bike lanes face moving violations and fines under state law. Cyclists who run red lights or ride against traffic can also be cited.
