RTC of Southern Nevada and the city are planning enhanced transit along Maryland Parkway and Charleston Boulevard, with zoning incentives encouraging higher density and mixed use near future stations.
The Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada coordinates the bus rapid transit upgrade for Maryland Parkway, connecting downtown to Harry Reid International Airport via UNLV. The City of Las Vegas Title 19 includes overlay tools allowing density bonuses, reduced parking minimums, and ground-floor retail requirements within walking distance of planned stations. New mid-rise apartment and mixed-use projects must front the street with active uses, provide bicycle parking, and connect sidewalks to transit stops. Setback waivers help projects build closer to corners with strong pedestrian volumes.
Projects claiming TOD bonuses but failing to build pedestrian connections, bike storage, or active ground floors lose density entitlements and may have to redesign before final approval.
