Art of Transportation: Hoover Dam

By John Dougherty / ADOT Communications

The Art of Transportation takes you to the less-photographed side of Hoover Dam and showcases the four intake towers helping control water flow. Each measures 82 feet in diameter at the base and is nearly 400 feet high.

Hoover Dam sits on the Nevada-Arizona state line near US 93. Visit the United States Bureau of Reclamation website for additional information on Hoover Dam.
