The ConnectLAX joint venture will provide environmental and preliminary design services for an extension of the Metro Green Line to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).
听
The Green Line LAX Extension will link the planned Metro station at Century and Aviation - about 2.4km from the airport - with the central terminal area of LAX. Three alternatives will be explored an above ground or underground extension of the Green Line light rail, or an automated people mover.

The ConnectLAX team will prepare the alternatives analysis, final environmental impact statement/environmental impact report (EIS/EIR), and conceptual engineering to support the final EIS/EIR. The contract includes two phases, covering environmental approval then preliminary design of the alternative chosen for the extension.

Completion of the EIS/EIR is scheduled for late 2012.
