Brightline West to Launch Field Work and Begin Hiring Workers
The Brightline West project is getting closer to groundbreaking on the high-speed line from Las Vegas to Southern California. After being awarded $3 billion from the Federal Railroad Administration in December, Brightline West has announced it’s launching field investigation work in Nevada. They are also beginning to recruit workers to construct the high-speed line, anticipating 11,000 hires to build the 218-mile high-speed line. If the project can begin construction soon, they hope to be finished in time for the 2028 Olympics, which are being hosted in Los Angeles.
