French engineer Alstom has won an $84m contract to upgrade the automated people mover at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas.

Alstom will integrate 10 additional vehicles in the Blue and Green lines, as well as improving their signalling and cybersecurity systems.

The company has long experience with Harry Reid’s people mover, having supplied the first generation of Innovia cars to the Green Line in 1985. It also worked on a Blue Line expansion in 1998 and on the construction of Terminal 3 in 2012.

Michael Keroullé, Alstom America’s president, said: “Our strategic upgrades and delivery of the best-in-class Innovia APM R cars minimise environmental impact and will elevate the travel experience for millions of riders.”

Harry Reid International Airport accommodated a record 58 million passengers in 2023.
