 CHARLOTTE, NC — City Council unanimously approved a plan to give the Blue Line Extension project another $22 million in funding.

The funds cover unexpected delays in construction.  Taxpayers won’t have to pay extra because there’s money set aside to cover the cost.

The Blue Line Extension is scheduled to open in the summer of 2017.
