=== United States === ==== Colorado I-70 ==== Transrapid is one of a number of companies seeking to build a {{Convert|120|mi|abbr=on}} high speed transit system parallel to the [[Interstate 70 in Colorado|I-70 Interstate]] in the US state of Colorado.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.i70solutions.org/docs/reports/MagLevPresCoates02-09.pdf|title=Maglev: On-Time Travel For Colorado|access-date=6 Dec 2013|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131211193855/http://www.i70solutions.org/docs/reports/MagLevPresCoates02-09.pdf|archive-date=2013-12-11}}</ref> Submissions put forward say that maglev offers significantly better performance than rail given the harsh climate and terrain. No technology had been preferred as of November 2013, though construction was slated to begin in 2020.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://gazette.com/colorado-springs-residents-get-look-at-proposed-rail-system/article/1509709|title=Colorado Springs residents get look at proposed Front Range rail system|date=November 21, 2013 <!-- at 9:06 am --> }}</ref> ==== Los Angeles to Las Vegas ==== {{Main article|California–Nevada Interstate Maglev}} The California–Nevada Interstate Maglev project is a proposed 269 mi (433 km) line from Las Vegas, Nevada to Anaheim, California. One segment would run from Las Vegas to Primm, Nevada, with proposed service to the Las Vegas area's forthcoming Ivanpah Valley Airport. The top speed would be 310 mph (500 km/h). In August 2014 the backers of the scheme were seeking to revive interest in it.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.canv-maglev.com/ |title=California Nevada Super Speed Train - Maglev |access-date=2009-09-04 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090922213331/http://www.canv-maglev.com/ |archive-date=2009-09-22}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|journal=Las Vegas Review-Journal | title=Supporters of maglev see chance to re-enter game|date=August 30, 2014|url=https://www.reviewjournal.com/business/supporters-maglev-see-chance-re-enter-game}}</ref> ==== Other ==== There have been several other evaluations conducted in the US, including [[Baltimore–Washington Superconducting Maglev Project|Washington, DC, to Baltimore]]; Chattanooga to Atlanta; and Pittsburgh to Philadelphia.<ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.transrapid-usa.com/images/route_USA.gif| title=Dawn of a new transportation era| publisher=Transrapid International-USA| access-date=27 March 2008| url-status=dead| archive-url=http://webarchive.loc.gov/all/20080806150309/http%3A//www.transrapid%2Dusa.com/images/route_USA.gif| archive-date=6 August 2008}}</ref> So far [when?], no project has started construction.
