The Las Vegas Monorail has announced it will resume service at 7 a.m. on Thursday May 27.
Yes, its true. After being closed for 14-plus months due to CoVid-19, and being taken over by the Las Vegas Convention and Visitor’s Authority, there is life. It is kicking off a bit early as it gets ready to service the 10,000 or so people expected to attend the World of Concrete trade show at the Las Vegas Convention Center starting on June 8.
Reports are the Monorail will operate on its pre-COVID (and pre-sale to the LVCVA) schedule: Monday 7 a.m. to midnight, Tuesday to Thursday 7 a.m. to 2 a.m., and Friday to Sunday, 7 a.m. to 3 a.m. The same prices will also be charged: single ride $5, day pass $13, multi-day passes $23-$56. Masks will be required.
One question is for locals. Pre-CoVid locals could buy tickets at $1 each by showing local ID., but no word if the same plan will be available.
