🚧 Stephanie Street Set for Major Overhaul
The Gist: Henderson will repave Stephanie Street from Galleria Drive to American Pacific starting in June. The $23 million project also includes underground repairs to a sewer line and reclaimed water pipeline that processes 5 million gallons daily. Drivers should expect long-term lane restrictions during construction, which is expected to finish by September 2027.
Why It Matters: The overhaul will fix years of potholes and infrastructure issues, making travel smoother and safer for Henderson residents. It’s been a rough ride for years, so this upgrade can’t come soon enough.
