Cities have been stuck in traffic for decades because the problem was solved wrong. We stack towers higher every year while forcing people onto flat roads, creating a system of 3D living and 2D movement that simply does not work. At a Forbes event, Elon Musk called digging tunnels to stack them like floors an obvious way to move people in three dimensions. He stated that building a transport system with tunnels going all over the place is the logical solution to reduce traffic. The Boring Company was created specifically to build these tunnels, yet it remains the only company taking this approach seriously. Musk encourages others to start tunneling companies because there is significant opportunity in the field.
