Elon Musk's The Boring Company has officially announced plans to build the Music City Loop, an approximately eight-mile underground tunnel system in Nashville, Tennessee. The project will connect downtown Nashville, including the Convention Center, to Nashville International Airport (BNA) along Murfreesboro Pike. The tunnel aims to alleviate traffic congestion by providing a faster transit option, with travel time estimated at around eight minutes. Passengers will be transported in Tesla vehicles through the tunnel. The initiative is being developed at no cost to taxpayers and is supported by the Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce and the state of Tennessee. The Boring Company’s previous Vegas Loop system recently received a near-perfect safety and security score of 99.51% from the Department of Homeland Security’s BASE assessment, earning a Gold Standard Award. The Music City Loop is expected to address the current traffic challenges on the roughly eight-mile drive between BNA and Broadway, which often takes much longer than the estimated 20-minute drive time.
