SR445, pyramid way - 3R and ADA (SR445, washoe county, SR 445, washoe county, pyramid way from nugget AVE to york way; MP WA 0.00 to MP WA 1.38, WA )

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded a formula grant of $852,385.00 to the Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) on September 10, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205). This award funds the SR445 Pyramid Way project in Washoe County, Nevada, which encompasses roadway rehabilitation and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessibility improvements along State Route 445 from Nugget Avenue to York Way (milepost 0.00 to 1.38). The project scope includes 2.75-inch cold-milled asphalt overlay, 2-inch polymer-modified binder course with 0.75-inch open-graded friction course, and selective patching work comprising 10% of the pavement surface area.

In addition to roadway preservation activities, the award funds upgrades to existing ramps, driveways, and select sidewalk locations to achieve full ADA compliance. The project is scheduled for completion by December 31, 2030, allowing approximately five years for implementation and completion of both the pavement rehabilitation and accessibility improvements. As a federally funded highway infrastructure project administered by a state department of transportation, this award supports FHWA's broader mission of maintaining and improving the nation's highway system while ensuring equitable accessibility for all users.
