Spring Mountain Road

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. East of Las Vegas Boulevard, Spring Mountain becomes Sands Avenue, and then jogs south to join Twain Avenue. State Route 591 (SR 591) was a state highway that comprised a 0.242-mile (0.389 km) section of Spring Mountain at Interstate 15. The roadway is named after Hoot Gibson's Spring Mountain Ranch, which is located where Chinatown is currently. The Spring Mountain Ranch was also known as the D-4-C Ranch due to the number of people who took advantage of Nevada's lax divorce laws in the period before the 1950's.

State highway route

SR 591 began at the intersection of Spring Mountain Road and Aldebaran Avenue. From there, it proceeded east under Interstate 15 and terminated near Highland Drive. Highland Drive intersects Spring Mountain Road in the form of a ramp from southbound Highland to westbound Spring Mountain, underneath I-15.

As of January 2008, SR 591 had been decommissioned. Although not maintained as a state route, Nevada DOT still maintains the former highway as a frontage road (FR CL 51).^[1]
