The Federal Aviation Administration has given the go-ahead to create a new sports stadium for the Los Angeles Rams football team a short distance from Los Angeles International Airport. Approval of the project had been delayed for nearly a year due to worries that the proposed location would interfere with flights in and out of the airport.

The stadium, whose price tag has been put at $1.86 billion, would be built in Inglewood, Calif. Planes flying into LAX would come in at an elevation of 600-700 feet above ground, and the proposed stadium’s highest point would be 273 feet off the ground. On Friday, the FAA gave its official approval to the project after the developer agreed to take extra precautions to prevent potential disasters.
