The Boring Company is an infrastructure and tunneling company from Elon Musk that aims to take on Los Angeles traffic.
Musk's idea consist of an underground highway that takes cars to a great speed of 124 mph beneath the city of Los Angeles in a magnetic rail. With this multi-level tunnel networks for cars, it is imagined that traffic jams will be eliminated from the city. This project may look years ahead to be complete, but he is already working with The Boring Company and has a 400-foot-long 1,200-ton boring machine nicknamed "Nannie" that is already digging some test tunnels on SpaceX's site.
The Boring Company's project is becoming a reality and Elon Musk has great accomplishments behind him with Tesla, SpaceX and Hyperloop.
