The Henderson City Council last week approved a plan that hopes to ease some traffic in Henderson.
The $35 million agreement between the city and the Nevada Department of Transportation will design and construct a new interchange at I-15 and Starr Avenue.
The project includes Starr Avenue connections with Las Vegas Boulevard on the east side and Dean Martin Drive on the west side. Officials say the project will also improve access to McCarran International Airport for residents of the southern portion of the Las Vegas Valley.

The state transportation department is expected to break ground on the project by October, with an expected completion by late 2018.
