Elon Musk knows that digging a tunnel under Miami is hard
However, digging a tunnel under Miami is not an easy thing. The metropolis city is built on limestone — a kind of rock that precipitates out of water that contains dissolved calcium. The limestone is one of the reasons why the tunnel under the Port of Miami cost $700 million. On the other hand, The Miami Herald reported Friday that Musk and Suarez discussed the limestone rock and the rising sea levels.
In conclusion, the Boring Company — first launched in 2016, is close to finishing the first commercial tunnel under the Los Angeles Convention Center. The $52.5 million project will reduce traffic and help visitors travel between venues in no time. The Boring company currently has 4 projects in Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Howthorne and now Miami.
