Phoenix, AZ - Valley Metro Rail

Phoenix, AZ - Valley Metro Rail (styled corporately as METRO) is a 26.3-mile (42 km) light rail line operating in the U.S. state of Arizona. Part of the Valley Metro public transit system, it serves the cities of Phoenix, Tempe, and Mesa. Construction began in March 2005; operation started December 27, 2008. The line had a weekday ridership of 49,416 in 2016, making it the 14th busiest light rail system in the country.

In the years since it opened in 2008, the system has undergone two expansions, with at least five more scheduled, including Tempe Streetcar. Furthermore, extensions are planned in Glendale, and into South Phoenix to Baseline Road, all of which were expanded as a direct result of obtaining funding under the Proposition 104 sales tax increase.
