NDOT will host in-person and virtual meetings to review existing corridor conditions and gather public feedback on U.S. 395 between Carson City and the Nevada-California border at Topaz Lake. 

In a recent five-year period, eleven lives were lost on this section of the highway. The study, projected to be completed in spring 2025, will develop goals, recommendations, and strategies to enhance roadway safety and use and provide decision-makers with guidance for potential corridor improvements in the future.

Visitors can view project information and provide comments by visiting the virtual public meeting at ndotus395.com anytime between October 23 and November 22, 2023. 
There will be a meeting held on Monday, November 6, between 4-7 p.m. at the Carson City Community Center Gym at 851 East Williams Street, with a second meeting on Wednesday, November 8, between 4-7 p.m. at the Douglas County Community and Senior Center at 1329 Waterloo Lane in Gardnerville. 

The formal project presentation will be live-streamed on November 8 at 5:30 p.m. via the NDOT Facebook page (@NevadaDOT). Livestream participants will be allowed to provide comments and ask questions. Comments can be submitted at the public meeting or via instructions provided during the virtual public meeting.

They strung them along for years until they had no financial choice but to accept and get out. My Dad even hauled water for the Snow ranch trying to stay afloat. May God bless you all. I truly pray it works out for you.Comment publication date: 3/28/26, 9:22 PMComment source: Local Rancher Says Navy Land Expansion is Devastating His Family RanchComment author: Lynn JohnsonComment text: I remember your mother well; she was a lovely and kind woman.

I see glimpses of your face in the years worn onto my dad. It makes me feel more connected to you in some way. I remember the familiar kindness from you that I know in my dad. I would’ve really liked to have a good conversation. I only have a handful of memories with you, but you were loving, and you were kind. I wish I was able to say more. If I am someone to you, I hope I make you proud. Thank you Aunt for this sweet post.Comment publication date: 3/27/26, 12:11 AMComment source: Obituary -- Randolph Floris Banovich C Comment author: RBCComment text: The Navy should reimburse the market cost of replacing the grazing land they are taking.
