The LAX Automated People Mover is an under construction automated people mover (APM) system that will serve the area around Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).

The system will be owned by Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA) and operated by LAX Integrated Express Solutions (LINXS). The line will run for 2.25 miles (3.62 km) and have six stations that connect the LAX Consolidated Rent-A-Car Facility (ConRAC), the Los Angeles Metro Rail system, and the LAX West Intermodal Transportation Facility (West ITF) with the airport's central terminal area (CTA).

The line was initially planned to open in 2023, but as of July 2024, it is scheduled to open in January 2026.[2] An additional $200 million was authorized by the Board of Airport Commissioners on May 2, 2024 to fund change orders in an attempt to firm up the schedule.[3][4] An additional $400 million was approved on August 16, 2024 by the City Council,[5][6][7] following a June 7, 2024 decision by the Project Neutral that LAWA was responsible for delays of 526 calendar days, having failed to act in good faith and comply with the contract documents.[8]
