Approved a contract with Elon Musk’s The Boring Co. to design and construct a people mover for the Las Vegas Convention Center.
The Boring Co. was recommended to design, construct and operate a people mover via a loop of underground express-route tunnels.
Costing approximately $10 million to complete, the 1.14-mile-long tunnel runs under one of the main streets in Hawthorne, California.
The pod-like electric skates, which could carry eight to 16 passengers at a time, would travel up to 150 miles per hour.
Plans to deliver 12-minute service from Downtown to O’Hare Airport using electric vehicles in underground tunnels.
Elon Musk discusses his company's vision to "alleviate soul-destroying traffic" through a zero-emissions, high-speed, underground public transportation system.
Loop is a high-speed underground public transportation system in which passengers are transported on autonomous electric skates traveling at 125-150 mph.
The hyperloop tunnel would run from New York to Philadelphia to Baltimore to D.C.
The project, unveiled Nov. 28 by Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, aims to provide commuters with a 20-minute option to taxi or Uber rides, which cost between $40 and $60.
