Developing next-generation tunneling technology and high-speed transportation systems to solve urban congestion and enable rapid intercity travel.
2025 PROGRESS AND MILESTONES
Las Vegas Loop Expansion:
Completed Phase 2 with 29 stations operational and over 1 million passenger trips monthlyPrufrock-3 Tunneling Machine:
Achieved record speed of 1 mile per week, 6x faster than conventional TBMsHyperloop Test Track:
Virgin Hyperloop (now Hyperloop One) completed first passenger tests at 172 mphNew Projects:
Signed agreements for Loop systems in Miami (Brightline connection) and Chicago (O'Hare express)Technology Advances:
Developed new concrete lining system reducing tunnel costs by 40% compared to traditional methods
LOOP TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM
HOW LOOP WORKS
Loop is an all-electric, zero-emissions underground transportation system using autonomous Tesla vehicles traveling at up to 150 mph through dedicated tunnels.- Las Vegas Loop: 29 stations across 35 miles of tunnels serving casinos, convention center and airport
- Miami Loop: Planned 6-mile connection between Brightline station and Miami Beach
- Chicago Express: Proposed 18-minute O'Hare to downtown connection (vs 40+ minutes currently)
ADVANTAGES OVER SUBWAYS
- Direct point-to-point travel with no intermediate stops- Higher speeds (up to 150 mph vs 65 mph for subways)
- Lower construction costs ($10-20M/mile vs $500M-$1B for subways)
- Faster deployment (months vs years for traditional transit)
- Scalable capacity by adding more vehicles and parallel tunnels
2025-2026EXPANSION PLANS
- Complete 45-station Las Vegas network by end of 2025- Begin Miami and Chicago projects pending approvals
- Test larger autonomous vehicles for higher capacity routes
TUNNELING TECHNOLOGY
PRUFROCK-3 INNOVATIONS
The Boring Company's third-generation tunneling machine represents a quantum leap in underground construction:- Porpoising Technology: Launches directly from surface, mines underground, and re-emerges upon completion
- Record Speeds: 1 mile per week (vs industry average of 0.1 mile per week)
- All-Electric Operation: Zero emissions during tunneling operations
- Reduced Diameter: 12-foot tunnels require 60% less excavation than conventional tunnels
COST REDUCTION STRATEGIES
- Standardized Components: Uniform tunnel diameter across all projects- Waste Repurposing: Excavated soil converted to bricks and construction materials
- Continuous Mining: Simultaneous mining and segment installation
- Vertical Integration: In-house manufacturing of TBMs and construction vehicles
HYPERLOOP CONNECTION
While focusing on urban Loop systems, The Boring Company continues to develop tunneling technology that could enable future Hyperloop networks:- Straight, precision-aligned tunnels ideal for vacuum tube systems
- High-speed switching technology for intercity connections
- Partnership with Hyperloop One for potential Las Vegas to Los Angeles route
