Eastbound 215 will be closed between Sunset Road/McCarran International Airport and Warm Springs Road from 9 p.m. Monday until 5 a.m. 
 
Drivers will be able to get to the airport, but those who are trying to pass through should take an alternate route towards Henderson.
 
The ramp connecting the Airport Connector south to 215 east will also be closed, along with the Sunset Road ramp off the Airport Connector. No closures are scheduled for 215 west, or for the Airport Connector south to 215 west.
 
Clark County officials say the closures are necessary for construction crews to finish installing parts of a new flyover off-ramp that goes over the 215 beltway.
 
Officials suggest the following alternate routes:
 
-Eastbound 215 traffic not headed to the airport should get off the 215 at Jones, Decatur or Las Vegas boulevards.
 
-Drivers headed from the I-15 to 215 east and not headed to the airport should get off I-15 at Blue Diamond Road or St. Rose Parkway.
