Overview
- The Boring Company has signed a memorandum of understanding with Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority to develop the Dubai Loop, a high-speed underground transit system.
- The pilot phase will include 17 kilometers of tunnels and 11 stations, capable of transporting 20,000 passengers per hour using autonomous electric vehicles.
- Future expansions aim to increase the system's capacity to 100,000 passengers per hour and extend the network to over 100 kilometers across the city.
- The project seeks to address growing traffic congestion in Dubai while promoting sustainability through the use of electric vehicles in its tunnels.
- No timeline for the completion of the pilot phase or full project has been announced, reflecting the project's early planning stages.
