=== Mandalay Bay extension ===
In March 2018, the Clark County Commission approved a proposed extension to Mandalay Bay, putting the monorail closer to [[Allegiant Stadium]]. The monorail company planned to start construction on the extension in June 2018 and have it completed by September 2020, in time for the completion of the stadium and [[Las Vegas Raiders]] inaugural season in Las Vegas.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Theodros |first=Abby |date=2018-03-21 |title=Clark County Commissioners approve monorail extension |language=en |work=[[KVVU-TV|FOX5 Vegas]] |publisher=[[Meredith Corporation]] |url=http://www.fox5vegas.com/story/37782122/clark-county-commissioners-approve-monorail-extension |url-status=live |access-date=2018-03-25 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180525045223/http://www.fox5vegas.com/story/37782122/clark-county-commissioners-approve-monorail-extension |archive-date=2018-05-25}}</ref> In November 2018 it was confirmed that two new Monorail stations would be built; one at Mandalay Bay and another at the [[MSG Sphere Las Vegas|MSG Sphere]] with completion by 2021.<ref name="reviewjournal.com">{{cite web| url=https://www.reviewjournal.com/business/monorail-station-planned-for-msg-sphere-arena-in-las-vegas-1532702/amp/| title=Monorail station planned for MSG Sphere arena in Las Vegas| date=November 21, 2018}}</ref> In May 2019, lack of funding delayed the start of construction on a Mandalay Bay extension.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nevadacurrent.com/2019/05/16/zero-support-from-resort-industry-for-funding-monorail-expansion/|title = "Zero support" from resort industry for funding monorail expansion|date = May 16, 2019}}</ref> As of March 2020, there is no timetable to begin construction on an extension nor a completion date.
