Not long ago, Elon Musk said that he could quickly build a low-cost tunnel for Miami, and the local mayor responded quickly. Recently, the mayor said that he had approached the Boring Company and said that the construction plan would only cost 30 million US dollars.
Due to geological problems, it has always been difficult to construct tunnels in Miami. As a result, there are not only no subways, but also not many tunnels on the road. The traffic congestion is very serious. According to the Mayor of Miami, Francis Suarez, Elon Musk told him that the construction of the tunnel takes only half a year, which is much shorter than the 4 years that the local traffic officials expected. They also estimated that the construction cost was as high as $1 billion, so the Boring Company proposal looks like Quite attractive.

Francis Suarez said he will liaise with Florida and Miami-Dade County, hoping that the plan can be approved. However, there is no detailed mention of how the tunnel construction plan can solve its own geological problems and avoid subsidence in other parts of the city due to the project. Elon Musk also planned to build tunnels in Chicago and western Los Angeles, but the plan failed in the end. Will the Miami tunnel construction plan succeed this time?
