Looks like the US 93 truck route may not be fully dead yet.

When I drove through in March, the truck route was still signed in three places on the Nevada side, but none on the Arizona side, at least westbound.

That day, the Hoover Dam bypass bridge was closed to trucks due to high winds. A better-signed truck route would've helped that day. If high winds are often an issue at the bypass bridge, that could justify keeping the truck route in place indefinitely.
