Las Vegas Stadium Authority Outlines Ambitious Construction Timeline

The Las Vegas Stadium Authority today issued a "draft of a preliminary project timeline that shows completion of the 65,000-seat domed football stadium" by June '20, giving the Raiders "three months to move in" before their first regular-season game. The timeline shows a "30-month construction period beginning in January after stadium bonds are issued," with site work "targeted by December." That timeframe is "ambitious when compared with other recent stadium projects." Most of the focus on the draft timeline is on "actions and approvals that must occur in the next nine months" (REVIEWJOURNAL.com, 5/8).
