Elon Musk's Boring Company (how many companies does this guy run now?Lewd Family [Uncut]) has officially completed its first tunnel underneath Los Angeles, paving the way for pods to shuttle pedestrians and cyclists at fast speeds.
Musk shared the news of the completed 2.7-mile tunnel through social media with a timelapse video posted to Instagram, showing a ride from beginning to end.
SEE ALSO: Elon Musk's flamethrowers have rhyming, ridiculous terms and conditionsThe tunnel's completion is a major milestone for The Boring Company, but it's still pending regulatory approvals. In the Instagram post, Musk thanked "strong support from public, elected officials & regulators."
If approved, Musk says the tunnel will offer "free rides to the public in a few months" (that's demo rides for free). Regular ride fares will be "less than the cost of a bus ticket."
Finally, Musk reminded everyone the tunnel's purpose: to transport pedestrians and cyclists. Musk originally shared a video of the tunnel's use to shoot cars around underground, but clarified in March that cars would take a backseat to pedestrians and cyclists.
