Access
Primary road access to the area is currently via Interstate 15 and Las Vegas Boulevard. It is also located near the Union Pacific mainline that Amtrak has proposed to use for a high-speed train to California. It is also expected to be near the proposed Desert Xpress high-speed rail line. The also stalled California-Nevada Interstate Maglev line to connect Las Vegas with California was to terminate at the new airport.

Famous quotes containing the word access:
“Make thick my blood,
Stop up th’ access and passage to remorse,
That no compunctious visitings of nature
Shake my fell purpose.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“A girl must allow others to share the responsibility for care, thus enabling others to care for her. She must learn how to care in ways appropriate to her age, her desires, and her needs; she then acts with authenticity. She must be allowed the freedom not to care; she then has access to a wide range of feelings and is able to care more fully.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
“The professional celebrity, male and female, is the crowning result of the star system of a society that makes a fetish of competition. In America, this system is carried to the point where a man who can knock a small white ball into a series of holes in the ground with more efficiency than anyone else thereby gains social access to the President of the United States.”
—C. Wright Mills (1916–1962)
