Paving Trucks Rolling At Raiders’ Allegiant Stadium Friday

By Alan Snel of LVSportsBiz.com

The Las Vegas Raiders have been releasing interior stadium videos on their website lately, but Friday morning a line of Las Vegas Paving trucks and trailers were lined up on the stadium’s north side ready to roll.

The trucks were poised to work on the surface lot paving on the 62-acre Allegiant Stadium site on the west side of Interstate 15 across from Mandalay Bay.

About 50 days remain until July 31, the date the Raiders have targeted to have the 65,000-seat domed venue ready. The NFL team showed interior views and the field surface in a website video here.

 

Here’s a chat showing the stadium by the numbers:
