Clark County Approves Monorail Expansion Plans

Clark County officials approved a plan to extend the Las Vegas Monorail routes from the MGM Grand to the Mandalay Bay.

County commissioners voted Tuesday to approve a list of items that will help make the extension possible, including land-use permits and permits.

The monorail company still needs to finalize the design of the expansion, and the 1-mile add could take up to two years to construct and test.

The approved resolution will allow the monorail company to ask the county for up to $4.5 million a year in excess resort corridor room tax revenues to pay for track maintenance.
