Summerlin Parkway
highway in Nevada
Summerlin Parkway is a freeway in the western portion of the city of Las Vegas, Nevada. It connects Clark County Route 215 (CC 215) to Interstate 11/U.S. Route 95 (I-11/US 95) and serves the master-planned community of Summerlin. In January 2019, the entire freeway was designated State Route 613 (SR 613) by the Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT).
Route description
Summerlin Parkway begins at the convergence of a one-way pair near a signalized junction with access ramps to the Las Vegas Beltway (CC 215) and partial access to Far Hills Avenue. The highway becomes a full freeway just east of the intersection and maintains this status as it heads eastward through Summerlin and Las Vegas. It has interchanges with (from west to east) Anasazi Drive, Town Center Drive, Rampart Boulevard, Durango Drive (albeit incomplete), and Buffalo Drive. The freeway terminates at the interchange with Rainbow Boulevard (SR 595) and I-11/US 95, locally known as the "Rainbow Curve" interchange.
History
Summerlin Parkway was initially constructed by the developers of Summerlin through the Summerlin Homeowners Association. The first construction along the parkway, completed in 1989, consisted of rebuilding the US 95 interchange and constructing the divided highway west to Town Center Drive. Later projects funded by the Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada brought freeway interchanges to Buffalo Drive in 1992 and Rampart Boulevard in 1994.

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 19, 2026.
