Lyon County to hold a U.S. 50 traffic safety town hall meeting May 16

Lyon County Commission Chair Ken Gray has scheduled a Town Hall meeting to discuss traffic safety issues on U.S. 50. The Town Hall is scheduled for May 16, at 6 p.m. at the Dayton Calvary Chapel, 28 Enterprise Way Dayton. Gray has invited representatives from the Nevada Department of Transportation, Nevada State Police, and the Lyon County Sheriff’s Office to address traffic safety issues and to receive input from the public.

The Board of Commissioners has voiced concerns about the number of accidents and fatalities on Highway 50. The fatal crash this past weekend adds to the list of serious crashes. Lyon County anticipates a large gathering and is hopeful that the town hall will produce positive solutions to reduce crashes.
