Las Vegas is one of the most dangerous cities for bicyclists in the country and one stretch of road is particularly dangerous.

The Chicago workers' compensation attorneys found Tropicana Avenue, between Pecos Road and Rainbow Boulevard, to be one of the scariest spots for bicyclists.

The good news – improvements are coming.

"New cyclist lanes, wider sidewalks, in some cases mid-block crossings," city officials say.

Their goal is to make it easier and safer for everyone to travel the roadways.
