The Guardian: Clark County Needs Real Mass Public Transit

“Las Vegas is the only large metropolitan city in the Mountain West region of the US that does not have a real mass public transit system,” says Minja Yan, who is running for Clark County commissioner. “But because our elected officials haven’t been prioritising public transit, the Boring Company came up with a private project and our elected officials were kind of like: ‘OK, maybe it sounds like a cool idea.’” So is light rail, she says – “but it takes work to make it happen. It takes vision, it takes coordination, it takes a lot of time.”
