Route description
_near_Las_Vegas,_Nevada.jpg)
SR 562 begins at the intersection of Sunset Road and Las Vegas Boulevard (former SR 604/US 91/US 466). The highway heads east, skirting the southern edge of the McCarran International Airport runways, to an end at the city limits of Henderson at Annie Oakley Drive.
As part of I-15 south construction, an overpass was constructed for Sunset Road over I-15, which didn't exist previously. It is now continuous between Valley View Boulevard and Las Vegas Boulevard.
