Elon Musk’s Boring Company Will Build High-Speed Train To Chicago’s O’Hare Airport

Chicago has selected Elon Musk’s Boring Company to build and operate an “express service to transport people to O’Hare Airport from downtown in 12 minutes on electric vehicles in underground tunnels,” Mayor Rahm Emanuel says.

The Chicago Express Loop would be “100 percent privately funded,” the Boring Company says. Emanuel added that there would be no public subsidy to help pay for it.
