Durango Drive is a major north-south road in the Las Vegas metropolitan area, Nevada, United States located on the west side of the city.
Durango Drive begins at an intersection with Moccasin Road in northern Las Vegas at the Las Vegas-Tule Springs Fossil Beds National Monument border in the neighborhood of Tule Springs. The road heads south from there to intersect with Brent Lane, which provides access to Tule Springs Road and Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs. Durango Drive continues south and eventually southeast before entering the El Capitan alignment and has an interchange with U.S. Route 95. From there, it continues into the Centennial Hills neighborhood of Las Vegas and serves the Centennial Hills Hospital. Near the southern area of Centennial Hills, Durango Drive has an interchange with CC 215. Continuing from there, the road curves southeast and re-enters its proper grid alignment and eventually intersects with Cheyenne Avenue at the Summerlin neighborhood and continues south into the El Capitan Way alignment again as Rampart Boulevard.
Although being part of the southern half of Durango Drive, the road is still signed as North Durango Drive from its northern terminus at Vegas Drive to the Summerlin Parkway (Nevada State Route 613) interchange where it becomes South Durango Drive. Like most other major north-south grid roads west of Interstate 15, Durango Drive curves southeast before intersecting with Charleston Boulevard (Nevada State Route 159), from where it continues straight south through Spring Valley to its southern interchange with CC 215. Nearby the interchange are Nevada's first IKEA furniture store, opened in 2016, [1] and the future site of the UnCommons mixed-use development by Matter Real Estate. [2] Durango Drive eventually enters Enterprise and intersects with Blue Diamond Road (State Route 160) in the Mountain's Edge neighborhood. From there, Durango Drive continues south and reaches its southern terminus at the Starr Avenue intersection.
Durango Drive is section line road from Warm Springs Road to Windmill lane for 1 mile dividing Spring Valley and Enterprise.
This section is written in the wrong direction. U.S. road articles are generally written in a south-to-north and west-to-east direction in order to follow the order of their mileposts. |

Despite the "1" as the last digit in the number, US-91 is no longer a cross country artery. The highway currently serves to connect the communities of the Cache Valley to Interstate 15 and beyond. Prior to the mid-1970s, US 91 was an international commerce route from Long Beach, California to the Canada–US border north of Sweetgrass, Montana. US 91 was routed on the main streets of most of the communities it served, including Las Vegas Boulevard in Las Vegas and State Street in Salt Lake City. From Los Angeles to Salt Lake, the route was built along the corridor of the Arrowhead Trail. US 91 has been largely replaced by Interstate 15. A portion of the highway's former route in California is currently State Route 91.
Interstate 515 (I-515) is a 14.444-mile-long (23.245 km) spur route of Interstate 15 in Nevada that runs from the junction of I-11, I-215 and SR 564 in Henderson to the junction of I-15, US 93 and US 95 in Downtown Las Vegas. The freeway connects traffic headed from Boulder City and Henderson to Downtown Las Vegas via a direct, high-speed route and is concurrent with both US 93 and US 95 along its entire length.
Summerlin is an affluent master-planned community in the Las Vegas Valley of Southern Nevada. It lies at the edge of the Spring Mountains and Red Rock Canyon to the west; it is partly within the official city limits of Las Vegas and partly within unincorporated Clark County. This rapidly growing community occupies over 22,500 acres and according to its developers, "has grown to encompass more than 230 parks, more than two dozen public and private schools, 14 houses of worship, nine golf courses, three resort hotels, recreational facilities, retail and entertainment centers, well-established office parks, a medical center, and more."
The Las Vegas Valley is a major metropolitan area in the southern part of the U.S. state of Nevada. The state's largest urban agglomeration, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Statistical Area is coextensive since 2003 with Clark County, Nevada. The Valley is largely defined by the Las Vegas Valley landform, a 600 sq mi (1,600 km2) basin area surrounded by mountains to the north, south, east and west of the metropolitan area. The Valley is home to the three largest incorporated cities in Nevada: Las Vegas, Henderson and North Las Vegas. Eleven unincorporated towns governed by the Clark County government are part of the Las Vegas Township and constitute the largest community in the state of Nevada.
The Las Vegas Beltway is a 50.3-mile (81.0 km) beltway route circling three-quarters of the Las Vegas Valley in southern Nevada. The Las Vegas Beltway carries two numerical designations. Approximately 11.1 miles (17.9 km) of the highway, from its southern terminus at Interstate 11/Interstate 515/U.S. Route 93/U.S. Route 95 in Henderson west and northwest to Interstate 15, is signed as Interstate 215 (I-215); however, only two distinct portions of this section, totaling a little over 4.6 miles (7.4 km), are maintained by the Nevada Department of Transportation. Clark County Route 215 composes the remaining 39.2 miles (63.1 km) of this semi-circumferral highway, with the county's Department of Public Works responsible for all construction and maintenance.
State Route 159 is a 31.204-mile (50.218 km) east–west highway in Clark County, Nevada, United States, providing access to Red Rock Canyon and serving as a thoroughfare in the Las Vegas metropolitan area. A portion of the west end of the route is designated a Nevada Scenic Byway.
State Route 595 comprises a portion of Rainbow Boulevard, a north–south section line arterial in the Las Vegas Valley.
State Road 865 and County Road 865 are a series of roads serving Lee County, Florida. Originally a continuous state road extending from Bonita Springs to Tice by way of Fort Myers Beach and Fort Myers, SR 865 now consists of two segments connected by a part of CR 865, which also extends to the north and south of the state segments. Both the state and county controlled segments of the route combined stretch a distance of over 40 miles (64.37 km), making it the longest designation in Lee County.
Route 15, consisting of the contiguous segments of State Route 15 and Interstate 15 (I-15), is a major north–south state highway and Interstate Highway in the U.S. state of California, connecting San Bernardino, Riverside, and San Diego Counties. The route consists of the southernmost 289.24 miles (465.49 km) of I-15, which extends north through Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Idaho, and Montana to the Canada–US border. It is a major thoroughfare for traffic between San Diego and the Inland Empire, as well as between Southern California, Las Vegas, Nevada, and the Intermountain West.
Spring Mountain Road is a major east-west road in the Las Vegas Valley. It runs from Hualapai Way at its western terminus to Las Vegas Boulevard in the east.

Maryland Route 140 is a 49-mile (79 km) state highway in the U.S. state of Maryland. The route runs from U.S. Route 1 and US 40 Truck in Baltimore northwest to the Pennsylvania border, where the road continues into that state as Pennsylvania Route 16. MD 140 passes through the northern part of central Maryland, connecting Baltimore, Pikesville, Reisterstown, Westminster, Taneytown, and Emmitsburg.
U.S. Route 40 in the U.S. state of Maryland runs from Garrett County in Western Maryland to Cecil County in the state's northeastern corner. With a total length of 221 miles (356 km), it is the longest numbered highway in Maryland. Almost half of the road overlaps or parallels with Interstate 68 (I-68) or I-70, while the old alignment is generally known as US 40 Alternate, US 40 Scenic, or Maryland Route 144. West of Baltimore, in the Piedmont and Appalachian Mountains / Blue Ridge region of the Western Maryland panhandle of the small state, the portions where it does not overlap an Interstate highway are mostly two-lane roads. The portion northeast of Baltimore going toward Wilmington in northern Delaware and Philadelphia in southeastern Pennsylvania is a four-lane divided highway, known as the Pulaski Highway. This section crosses the Susquehanna River at the north end of the Chesapeake Bay on the Thomas J. Hatem Memorial Bridge.
