ACE Downtown Connector Rapid Transit Project

The ACE Downtown Connector project will provide a high-grade rapid transit link between downtown Las Vegas and the southern resort corridor. Project components will include dedicated transit lanes along a portion of the alignment along with passenger stations with station canopies, lighting, ticket vending machines and displays announcing vehicle arrival times. The stations will have unique artistic displays created by local artists as well as refurbished historic neon signs.

The city of Las Vegas in partnership with the RTC have begun work on the project, which includes roadway and station platform improvements along Grand Central Parkway, Casino Center Boulevard, 3rd Street, and Paradise Road.

As construction progresses, work zones will be adjusted to minimize inconvenience to nearby businesses and the traveling public. Access to area businesses will be maintained during daytime hours.

Traffic delays and disruptions can be expected while work is underway. Las Vegas Boulevard and Main Street are suggested as alternate routes for north-south travel. Charleston Boulevard and Bonanza Road are suggested for east-west travel.
