The new Nevada portion of US 95 covered a distance of approximately 686 miles (1,104 km). The entire route was on paved roads, except for a small portion of SR 5 between the California state line and Searchlight.

Fallon to Winnemucca realignment

When U.S. Route 95 was designated through Nevada, it avoided using a shorter alignment between Winnemucca and Fallon. The northern segment of State Route 1A had been previously established running north from Fallon to connect with US 40 southwest of Lovelock. At the time, however, this portion of SR 1A was mostly an unimproved road. State Route 1A had been completely paved by 1959, and the US 95 designation was moved over it by 1960. This new alignment eliminated the need to drive west to Fernley and then double back eastward, shortening the highway's length by about 26 miles (41.8 km).

When US 95 was realigned, the former route via Fernley was redesignated as alternate route

replaced the section of US 95 Alternate (original US 95) heading east towards Fallon.

Improvements in Las Vegas

northward briefly before going west on Bonanza Road (now SR 579). US 95 finally turned northwest on Rancho Drive (now SR 599), which became the Tonopah Highway as it traveled northwest out of the Vegas valley. Over the years, this routing of US 95 along city streets would slowly be replaced with newer, high-speed facilities.

Las Vegas Expressway

Elected in 1959, Las Vegas mayor Oran Gragson began advocating for regional street and planning initiatives in the growing Las Vegas Valley. In the early 1960's, Gragson had become instrumentally involved in planning what was then referred to as the "West Fremont Expressway". By 1968, the expressway was beginning to take shape, beginning at Las Vegas Boulevard downtown, interchanging with Interstate 15

Interstate 15 in Nevada

and spurring west towards Rancho Drive.

The Las Vegas Expressway was slowly constructed over the next decade, reaching west to Rainbow Boulevard by 1978. A northward extension, linking the expressway to the Tonopah Highway northwest of downtown was completed around 1980. By 1982, US 95 was moved from Rancho Drive to the completed expressway alignment. Also in 1982, as the result of a petition drive, the new US 95 expressway was renamed to the "Oran K. Gragson Expressway" in honor of the four-term mayor. The Nevada Department of Transportation

now recognizes this portion of US 95 as the "Oran K. Gragson Freeway".

Henderson spur

The first section of the future I-515 freeway in Las Vegas opened from I-15 to Charleston Boulevard in 1984 and to Boulder Highway (at current exit 70) by 1985. US 95 was moved from the Las Vegas Boulevard, Fremont Street, and Boulder Highway onto the new freeway. As additional sections of freeway were completed, both US 95 and the concurrently routed US 93 were moved to the new facility. The I-515 designation was added with the completion of the entire freeway to Railroad Pass around 1995. The former route on Boulder Highway is now SR 582.
