State Route 171 is an unsigned state highway in Paradise, an unincorporated area of Clark County near Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. It is formally known as the Airport Spur Connector, serving to route traffic from Interstate 215 into the southern portal of the Las Vegas Airport Tunnel. That facility in turn continues north underneath several runways and taxiways at McCarran International Airport, with its roadways being designated as Paradise Rd beyond its north portal. The only interchange on NV 171, apart from the one at its origin on I-215, is a northbound exit / southbound entrance at Sunset Rd (NV 562), which lies just outside of the south portal of the tunnel (the point at which the state highway officially terminates).
