LAX People Mover Near Finish Line | Los Angeles News
Description
The LAX people mover is almost ready—99.6% complete with test runs already underway—but its opening has been repeatedly delayed and its cost ballooned from $2 billion to over $3.3 billion. Disputes between the airport and contractor LINXS sparked lawsuits, led to a junk bond rating from Fitch, and even prompted the city to ask a judge to block contractor lawyers accused of spying on confidential talks. With major events like the Olympics looming, the project’s finish line feels farther than ever despite the trains sitting on the tracks, waiting to roll.
