Review SBX Virtual Public Meeting Details
Washoe County is expected to see an increase of over 147,000 people over the next 20 years. The area is seeing a welcome influx of more commercial and industrial enterprises. The Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT), in preparation for continued population growth, is improving portions along Interstate 80, Interstate 580, and U.S. 395, with particular attention to the I-80/I-580 Interchange, also known as the Spaghetti Bowl. In addition to these improvements, future traffic projections will be analyzed and infrastructure needs will be identified to take the Reno-Sparks area through the year 2040.
Spaghetti Bowl improvements include short, mid and long-range projects. Long-range projects may include the widening of the freeway and interchange ramps to accommodate increased traffic volumes.
Continuing lane and ramp closures take place near the Spaghetti Bowl and will pause during the Thanksgiving Holiday weekend, resuming on Monday, November 29.

NDOT has launched construction of the Spaghetti Bowl Xpress project as crews prepare to remove and replace aging concrete on I-580 northbound between Mill Street and the Spaghetti Bowl. On northbound I-580 between Mill Street and the Spaghetti Bowl, you will see a football-shaped work zone separating traffic on either side for worker and driver safety.
Beginning, Sunday, August 23 drivers can expect additional nighttime lane reductions from 9 pm to 6 am on I-580 northbound between Mill Street and the spaghetti bowl. Speed limits are reduced and minor delays are anticipated.
Nevada Department of Transportation Launches Reno Spaghetti Bowl Project With Northbound I-580 Lane Closures
Safety is our top priority. The project team participates in daily safety meetings to review upcoming operations and coordinate activities.
Spaghetti Bowl Express (SBX) project design is in process.
Drivers will see periodic single lane closures on local roads near Interstate 580
Drivers will see temporary interstate shoulder and single lane closures
In November 2019 the Nevada Department of Transportation Board of Directors approved an unsolicited proposal to design and build SBX. A design build contract was approved in December 2019 with Ames Q&D Constructors, continuing momentum on these vital safety and capacity improvements. Key Preliminary Dates...

This early action project, Spaghetti Bowl Xpress, serves as phase one of the Nevada Department of Transportation’s (NDOT’s) Spaghetti Bowl Project, and addresses the areas most critical for safety within the Spaghetti Bowl system-to-system interchange. With the proposed Spaghetti Bowl Xpress improvements shared below, eastbound I-80 backups approaching the exit to I-580/U.S. 395 should be greatly reduced or eliminated, and southbound I-580/U.S. 395 backups at the Spaghetti Bowl should be eliminated. Overall, freeway safety in general should improve.
Please note: Phase 1 will not be relocating any homes.
Updated SBX Schedule Coming Soon.
