According to documents filed with the county, the project "will increase connectivity and convenience to visitors within the Resort Corridor and surrounding establishments" and it "encourage pursuing a variety of strategies to reduce reliance on private automobile travel, with the goal of reducing fossil fuel consumption and associated pollutant emissions from vehicles."
The Loop began by connecting halls at the Las Vegas Convention Center. In July 2022, the first public leg of the underground tunnels opened connecting the convention center halls with Resorts World.
The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority told Channel 13 at the time that they footed the bill for construction under the convention center since rides were free and the Boring Company didn't have any way to make a return on their investment.
However, outside of the convention space, riders will have to pay a fee so the Boring Company will pay to build the remainder of the system of tunnels and stations.
As of March 15, more than a million passengers have traveled on the Loop so far.
The county said new station designs will be submitted for an administrative design review at a later date.
