Brightline West high-speed rail project has been awarded a $3 billion federal grant.
The project is expected to be completed before the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
The rail system is expected to reduce congestion, boost tourism, and create approximately 35,000 union jobs.
The Brightline West high-speed rail project, which aims to link Las Vegas and Southern California, has been awarded a $3 billion federal grant. The grant is part of the $1 trillion 2021 infrastructure law and is expected to significantly advance the development of the 218-mile rail system. The project has been in the works for nearly two decades and is anticipated to reduce congestion in the Interstate-15 corridor, boost Southern Nevada's tourism economy, and create approximately 35,000 union jobs.
The rail system is expected to operate primarily within the median of the I-15 right-of-way and will have stations in Las Vegas and in Rancho Cucamonga, Hesperia, and Apple Valley in Southern California. The rail line will also connect to the Metrolink commuter train system in Southern California and terminate on the south end of Las Vegas Boulevard. The project is expected to be completed before the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
The high-speed rail system is expected to have speeds of at least 186 miles per hour, reducing the travel time between Las Vegas and Southern California to just over two hours. The funding approval clears the way for the long-anticipated commuter project to soon break ground. President Joe Biden is expected to make an official announcement about the grant award soon. The project is expected to take about four years to build.
