The Las Vegas Monorail keeps chugging along and on Tuesday, the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority unanimously approved another year of liability insurance coverage for the resort corridor’s 20-year old above-ground transit system.
For around two years, LVCVA officials have said the 3.9-mile monorail eventually would be decommissioned, but Steve Hill, president and CEO of the LVCVA, on Tuesday said the seven-stop system could likely run another eight to 10 years before it becomes obsolete.
Monorail officials have said they can no longer acquire parts for repairs for the system which was operated by the Walt Disney Co. before it was rerouted to Las Vegas.
