Cab Authority Looking For Ways Around Gridlocked Strip

Taxicab drivers will now have some alternative options to get around gridlocked traffic on the Las Vegas Strip.

The Taxicab Authority approved a plan this week to allow a set of parallel routes along Frank Sinatra Drive, Sammy Davis Jr. Drive, Koval Lane and Interstate 15 when Las Vegas Boulevard is congested.

The goal is to get passengers to their destinations faster and to reduce complaints about long-hauling.

This change focuses on Las Vegas Boulevard, but officials said parallel routes between McCarran International Airport and the Strip will also be examined later this summer.
