Slot machines in Lincoln could start spinning in about a month.

Warhorse Casino officials are hoping to set up around 400 slot machines around mid-September for a temporary setup while construction continues.

But…casino gambling in Omaha will have to wait until Q Street grows wider. Right now, Q Street around the area runs one lane each way and barely handles day-to-day traffic. More room will be needed when the casino opens.

“It’s being widened as well and I believe they’re putting in a turning lane I do know they’re also requiring that we have turning lane access off of 72nd Street so construction goes all the way down to 72nd,” said Lynne McNally, CEO of Nebraska Horsemen’s Benevolent and Protective Association.
