In an exciting development, The Boring Company wants to make a 6.2-mile underground transit system in Miami. Business Insider reports the Elon Musk-founded infrastructure and tunnel construction services company submitted a proposal for the project. 

Its purpose would be to transport Tesla vehicles between stations on State Road 826. The proposal also states the transit system would run between the Golden Glades Transit Center and Sunny Isles Beach at Newport Pier. 

The Boring Company projects the system’s cost would range between $185 million to $220 million and take fewer than three years to build with an accelerated permitting process. Initially, the loop would be able to handle 7,500 passengers per hour with the potential to be scaled up to 15,000 per hour.
