American Dream

Las Vegas, NV - The Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada approved moving forward with the Regional Fixed Guideway project today at their April Board Meeting. The choice of rubber tire rapid transit was based on greater flexibility and lower-cost than rail alternatives. During the public process, citizens expressed a desire to go to McCarran Airport and UNLV, among other places close to the proposed route. The plan provides the flexibility to adjust the route according to demand, while a rail option does not. In addition, the lower initial cost of the rubber tire rapid transit system presents a more attractive offer.
