A Metro Transit light rail vehicle crosses the Kenilworth Channel bridge in Minneapolis during testing for the Southwest LRT extension. The train is wrapped with safety and construction messaging, including “Opens 2027,” identifying it as part of the Green Line Extension project. The bridge carries the new line over the channel through the Kenilworth corridor, where test runs are used to check vehicle operation and route readiness before passenger service begins.
