Other News: Over the next two weeks, the Nevada Department of Transportation will activate new flashing yield signs on certain Interstate 580 Carson City Freeway on-ramps. The new yield signs located at the base of both northbound and southbound I-580 on-ramps from College Parkway and U.S. 50/East William Street will feature flashing yellow beacon lights at the top. The beacons light up when the nearby traffic signal is green for vehicles turning left to access the on-ramp from the opposing direction. As an additional visual cue to yield to drivers entering the ramp from the other direction, the first-in-the-state warning flashers will enhance safety. Additional “yield” pavement markings will also be placed on the ramps. Motorists are reminded to always watch for others and be ready to yield as needed.
