State Route 520 (SR 520) was a short state highway in Carson City, Nevada. The route served the central portion of the city, providing access to several government buildings in the capitol district. It was turned over to local control in 2010.
State Route 520 began on the southern end of Carson City at a junction with South Carson Street (U.S. Route 395 Business/SR 529) across from the Carson Ranger District office of the U.S. Forest Service. The route turned north from this intersection, passing headquarters for the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles, Nevada Department of Public Safety, and Nevada Department of Transportation. Stewart Street runs parallel to the east side of Carson Street as it heads northward.
As SR 520 crossed East Fifth Street (SR 513), it entered the downtown district. The 0.2-mile (0.32 km) stretch from Fifth Street to Musser Street forms the eastern border of the main state capitol complex. In this section, the route passed behind major state buildings such as the Nevada Legislature, the Supreme Court of Nevada, and the Nevada State Capitol. The same segment of road hosts other state institutions like the Nevada State Library and Archives and buildings for the Nevada Department of Education.
