The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority recommends using The Boring Company's tunnel design for its remodeled facility.
div > div.group > p:first-child"> The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority is recommending that Elon Musk's Boring Company design, construct and operate an underground people mover on its conference center campus. The LVCVA is spending $1.4 Billion to expand and renovate 200 acres of conference space, and it needs a way to move people more efficiently over roughly two miles.
"We hope to explore the opportunity to move this kind of technology into the entire city." Hill said, when he mentions the unified interest and support he's getting from property owners along the strip, Clark County and the Regional Transportation Commission."We've long recognized that as Las Vegas continues to grow, we have some chip points in moving people.
So for Musk and The Boring Company, Nevada represents an opportunity to demonstrate what they can do in a way a test tunnel in Hawthorne can't quite accomplish. "There's hope and interest on our part that if everyone is happy with it, expanding wherever the local community deems possible. We're just trying to be useful," Davis said of the Las Vegas project proposal.
