State Route 591 is a 0.2 mile road that runs East and West.
[edit] Route description
SR-591 begins 0.1 mile west of Interstate 15 to Highland Drive within Las Vegas; multi-lane divided connector. Boundaries along Spring Mountain are from Highland Drive to Aldebaran Ave, mileage of 0.242 miles. Note that Highland intersects Spring Mountain in the form of a ramp, right under Interstate 15. Highland southbound merges with the westbound Spring Mtn off ramp from Interstate 15 north. Nevada 591 is not the Desert Inn Superarterial. Spring Mountain Road is an entirely separate road running parallel to Desert Inn, and it is located about 1/4-mile south of Desert Inn Superarterial. Only a short portion of Spring Mountain Road (the section closest to Interstate 15) is maintained by the state. Clark County, not NDOT, built the Wilbur Clark Desert Inn Superarterial in the mid-1990s as a way to avoid the freeway and Strip. The only ways on/off the Desert Inn Superarterial are access roads between Valley View and the Interstate 15 overpass, an eastbound exit to Highland Drive (and via the new Spring Mountain interchange and westbound Spring Mountain), and westbound access to Channel 8 Drive.
