Alstom signed a contract with the Clark County Department of Aviation to deliver new Innovia automated people mover (APM) vehicles and provide system upgrades to Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas.
Alstom anticipates completion of the project by the end of 2027. The contract is for $84 million.
The project will provide a better experience for passengers and employees in a time of increased demand at Harry Reid International Airport, which set a new record for flyers in 2023, with 57.6 million passengers traveling through the airport.
“Alstom’s partnership with the Harry Reid International Airport spans decades, and we’re proud to continue building on our work to deliver the best in sustainability and efficiency to Las Vegas,” said Alstom Americas President Michael Keroullé. “Our strategic upgrades and delivery of the best-in-class Innovia APM R cars minimize environmental impact and will elevate the travel experience for millions of riders.”

Within this project Alstom will provide its latest Innovia APM vehicles, using state-of-the-art technology.
The vehicles offer outstanding benefits, including greater energy efficiency, higher top speed, and a lightweight aluminum vehicle frame that will continue to meet the ever-increasing industry standards for safety and sustainability. The vehicles will be manufactured in the U.S.
In addition to the delivery of the 10 new Innovia APM R cars, Alstom will lead upgrades of the Urbalis Flo signaling systems — including a replacement of the Central Control ATS system with the latest Ebi Screen 2000 and upgrades to the telecommunications systems.
The contract also includes the integration of a system-level cybersecurity solution.
