The Las Vegas Loop, an underground system of one-way tunnels that uses electric Teslas to transport people, now includes the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino. Located at the hotel’s porte-cochere, it provides access to a one-of-a-kind transportation system, enabling riders a fast and convenient way to move in and around the Las Vegas Strip corridor.
“The addition of the Vegas Loop at Westgate demonstrates our commitment to innovation and convenience,” said Cami Christensen, President & General Manager of Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino. “We’re thrilled to partner with LVCVA and The Boring Company to provide this cutting-edge transportation option for our guests and the Las Vegas community. Additionally, with both the Monorail and the Vegas Loop, Westgate is the most connected resort in Las Vegas.”
Steve Hill, President & CEO of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA) said that “the Vegas Loop is a transformative project for Las Vegas, enhancing connectivity and improving the visitor experience. We’re proud to see the Westgate Station open as a vital link in this system.”
In addition to the Las Vegas Convention Center, the Westgate Station connects to Resorts World Las Vegas and integrates with future Vegas Loop expansions, including connections to Harry Reid International Airport, Allegiant Stadium,and the Las Vegas Strip. Once fully developed, the Vegas Loop will feature 68 miles of tunnel and more than 100 stations,with the capacity to transport more than 90,000 passengers per hour.
Developed by The Boring Company, the Las Vegas Loop currently has four additional stations in addition to the Westgate:
- LVCC Loop South Station, Las Vegas Convention Center South at the South Hall, ground-level corner of Convention Center Drive and Joe W. Brown Drive.
