By 1968, the I-15 under construction in Nevada had a terminus at the Lamb Boulevard interchange. Freeway traffic to the north of Las Vegas transitioned from the Interstate to the old highways on Las Vegas Boulevard (U.S. Routes
91 and
93) by way of Lamb Boulevard.
The Interstate access along Lamb Boulevard was no longer a major through movement by 1972, as I-15 was completed further south into the urban core of Las Vegas by that time.
SR 610 was established in the
1976 renumbering of Nevada's state highways. The route was designated on July 1, 1976.
