Elon Mask was allowed to build a late tunnel for Hyperloop. Already have the first route

Elon Mask shared the latest news about his project The Boring Company. According to the entrepreneur, the authorities gave their approval for the construction of the first underground tunnels, but not for cars, but for vacuum transport Hyperloop. There is even a preliminary route. ![фіфів.PNG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmQi2JnWyqpr8om2BfDP72Kwop9rsGLePKeiZUj8Qh2SvZ/%D1%84%D1%96%D1%84%D1%96%D0%B2.PNG) However, as the editors of The Verge reported, it was not possible to get confirmation of the words of Ilona Mask from the authorities. Mask himself, without losing time, told some details. The route will take the line New York - Philadelphia - Baltimore - Washington. The travel time from the center of New York to Washington will take 29 minutes. An ordinary train passes this distance in 3 hours 20 minutes. The construction of the tunnel will be the company of Ilona Mask The Boring Company. Recall, Mask said that he wants to develop a method that will allow tunneling much faster than the current indicators. To do this, engineers must find a solution that will allow the drilling machines to work more efficiently. There are still two questions that remain open. First, who will be involved in the construction of Hyperloop. Judging by the reports of the businessman, The Boring Company will not only dig tunnels, but also build high-speed transport. Previously it was assumed that The Boring Company would make tunnels for cars. Secondly, the editorial board of The Verge, no one could confirm that Mask received the necessary drilling permits. According to preliminary information, he was kindly given to him, as an advisor (albeit former) of Trump, in the White House. Officially, however, the employer has no permits, which he later confirmed. If the project does start, the Mask will need to get permission to work from 6 states, 17 counties, dozens of cities, etc. The process may take some time. Mask also noted that the tunnel, which is being built near its headquarters, remains a working project, it will develop in parallel.
