Reno's Regional Transportation Commission (RTC) completed a widening rehabilitation project along Sky Vista Parkway in the North Valleys in mid-2023. Improvements include street lighting, eight-foot sidewalks, and five-foot bike lanes on both sides of the roadway. A roundabout has been constructed as part of the project at the entrance to North Valleys Regional Park. The City of Reno, in partnership with the Regional Transportation Commission (RTC) of Washoe County, NV and Washoe County, will develop a large-scale public art project that will be placed in the roundabout at Sky Vista Parkway and Silver Lake Road.
