One of the parking areas for the Tule Springs Fossil Beds National Monument in northwest Las Vegas will probably be closed through the end of the year, according to the National Park Service.

The closure, near Durango Drive and Moccasin Road, will allow for the construction of a storm drain, which is expected to be completed around the end of 2020.
