After hours of debate, the Phoenix City Council made a major change to plans for light rail expansion. In a 7-2 vote, the city council decided to stop expansion to the state capitol.

The vote forces Valley Metro to drop out of the capital investment grant process for the capitol extension project, which would have secured funding.

Valley Metro is now being directed to advance the planning of the West Phoenix Corridor along Indian School Road.
