If you use westbound I-80 near Waltham Way, plan ahead. Overnight lane reductions and ramp closures begin June 14. Traffic impacts near USA Parkway are part of an interim project to extend the Waltham Way on-ramp to westbound I-80 and improve traffic merging prior to future widening of I-80. Beginning the evening of June 14 through early September, drivers will see the following intermittent overnight impacts: • Waltham Way on-ramp to westbound I-80 closed beginning the week of June 14 through August. The USA Parkway on-ramp to westbound I-80 will remain open as an alternative. • Westbound I-80 Exit 28 off-ramp to Patrick/Waltham Way intermittently closed overnight through August. • Westbound I-80 reduced to one lane from 7:30 p.m. to 5 a.m. on weekdays, with additional weekend lane reductions outside peak travel hours. • Speeds reduced to 55 mph through the work zone, with periodic reductions to 45 mph during major work operations. Drivers should allow extra travel time and use caution through the work zone. The current Waltham Way on-ramp will be extended by approximately 2,200 feet through a public-private partnership between Storey County and Tesla. Storey County is funding eligible project costs through a reimbursement agreement with Tesla. More than 2,000 vehicles use Waltham Way daily, merging with nearly 50,000 vehicles traveling I-80 each day. The extension will provide additional space for drivers traveling from USA Parkway and Waltham Way toward Reno-Sparks to merge more safely onto the interstate while improving overall traffic flow. Traffic on this section of I-80 has increased more than 70% over the past decade. As development and employment continue to grow in the Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center (TRI-Center), the project will help improve traffic movement ahead of NDOT's planned widening of I-80 between USA Parkway and Vista Boulevard, currently anticipated to begin as early as 2027.

A new permanent traffic signal at the intersection of Electric Avenue and Milan Drive in the Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center (TRI-Center) is expected to become operational in the coming days as crews complete final testing and signal activation work.

Storey County is Dementia Friendly. But what does that mean? Our Dementia-Friendly Nevada group has been working over the past few months to better define how Storey County can support people living with dementia and their care partners. The group recently developed a Dementia-Friendly Mission and initial goals to help guide this work forward. Our Mission: Dementia-Friendly Storey County is a community-driven effort led by Health and Community Services in partnership with local organizations, first responders, community members, and individuals living with dementia and their care partners. Together, we are working to better understand the needs of older adults and create a community where everyone feels supported, included, valued, and safe. By listening, learning, and working side-by-side, we develop practical strategies that promote healthy aging and improve daily life. Our goal is to make Storey County a safe, welcoming, and supportive community for people living with dementia as well as those who care for them. Current focus areas include: • Brain health education through local and regional partners • Expanding access to dementia support services, including future support groups and one-on-one support • Building partnerships to improve safety, outreach, and the Silver CARE Program • Exploring quiet, accessible rest areas along C Street This work is ongoing, and updates will be shared as programs continue to develop.
