State Route 613 - Summerlin Parkway

Home » Guides » Nevada » State Route 613 - Summerlin Parkway

Summerlin Parkway was constructed by the developer of the planned Summerlin community in the west valley to connect it with U.S. 95 (Oran K. Gragson Freeway) east to Downtown Las Vegas. Since it was privately constructed, it was not part of the state highway system. The freeway extends 6.5 miles west from U.S. 95 (Oran K. Gragson Freeway) to Clark County 215 (Bruce Woodbury Beltway).

Summerlin constitutes a 22,500 acre master planned community including homes, offices, industry, and retail. Construction of Summerlin began in 1990 and by 2005, 91,000 residents called it home. Population projections in 2005 for the continued expansion of Summerlin estimated 180,000 residents by 2020.

The Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) took over maintenance of Summerlin Parkway in 2019. The freeway was designated State Route 613.
