Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO Elon Musk has touted that his tunneling startup, The Boring Company, can build a tunnel from Los Angeles to San Francisco that can exceed high-speed rail.
Technological Marvel
On Wednesday, Musk took to the social media platform X to express his criticism of Governor Gavin Newsom‘s (D-CA) High Speed Rail project from Los Angeles to San Francisco.
“The @BoringCompany could build a Hyperloop tunnel from downtown SF to downtown LA for 5% of this [$120 billion] cost,” Musk said, quoting a post that claimed the same money could be used to fund free flights between the cities for 200 years.
He added that the Hyperloop tunnel dug by The Boring Co. would “be a technological marvel exceeding any high speed rail on Earth.”
