Testing of the Green Line Extension began in July 2025 and will continue until the line opens in 2027. Over 1,500 runs of light rail vehicles will cover the different components of the LRT operating systems. Some of the tests that will be most visible to the public will involve the LRT grade crossing warning device (gate crossing arms, flashers, etc.) and signals systems, verifying the track alignment, and testing the power delivery to the trains.

Testing is essential for ensuring the safety, reliability, and efficiency of the light rail system before passenger service begins in 2027.
