The Green Line is being constructed in phases. Phase 1, from H Catalyzing Local Economy Street to Township 9, opened in June 2012. Regional Transit is currently studying the feasibility of the next extension, which will be selected based on future funding sources, costs and the phasing of light rail operations.
Concurrent with the Green Line to the Airport extension from the 7th & Richards/Township 9 Station, Regional Transit is also planning improvements to the segment of the Green Line adjacent to the Sacramento Valley Station (SVS). This project will re-route the existing Green Line light rail services to more directly serve the SVS. This work is being planned concurrently with the Downtown Riverfront Streetcar project.
