CHICAGO, Feb. 9 — Elon Musk’s Boring Company is among the four
respondents that want to build and operate an express rail system from
Chicago’s O’ Hare International Airport to downtown, Chicago mayor’s office
confirmed on Wednesday.
The high-profile entrepreneur has just sent his Tesla Roadster to space by
SpaceX’s brand new Falcon Heavy rocket on Tuesday. Chicago Mayor Rahm
Emanuel announced that Chicago Infrastructure Trust (CIT) has received four
responses to the Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to design, build,
finance, operate and maintain the O’Hare Express operating system. The
project aims to deliver express service that would take 20 minutes or less
to travel from downtown Chicago to O’Hare International Airport, cutting
more than 50 percent off current travel times. “Four visionary groups have
stepped forward because they see what we see – a connected Chicago is a
stronger Chicago,” Mayor Emanuel said in a statement. “Strengthening
connections between the economic engines of downtown Chicago and O’Hare
airport will build on Chicago’s legacy of innovation and pay dividends for
generations to come.”
According to the website of Musk’s Boring Company, “To solve the problem of
soul-destroying traffic, roads must go 3D, which means either flying cars
or tunnels.” Musk claims his new drilling technology can trim costs on
building a tunnel with high-speed pods to whisk riders to and from the
airport. The other three groups that show interest in the project are
Oaktree Capital Management, O’Hare Express Train Partners (OHL
Infrastructure, Kiewit, Amtrak) and O’Hare Xpress LLC (Meridiam, Antarctica
Capital, JLC Infrastructure, Mott MacDonald and First Transit).Chicago
mayor’s office did not mention in the statement when the city in the
midwestern U.S. State of Illinois will start accepting specific bids on the
project. – XINHUA
