ELON MUSK’S “RAINBOW ROAD” LOOP COMPLETE IN VEGAS TUNNEL
Completed directly under the Las Vegas Convention Center, Elon Musk’s The Boring Company designed and built a new underground tunnel system to transport convention attendees between each convention hall.
The Las Vegas Convention Center Loop is meant to help cut down 15-minute walks across the convention center down to simple 1-minute car rides in style, giving attendees a much-needed rest from traveling across show floors.
There are also plans to expand this new transportation system further throughout the city and convert the piloted Tesla cars into self-driving models!
