Miami Beach Mayor considering Elon Musk’s Boring Company tunnels

SMRTR summary

Miami Beach Mayor Steven Meiner is exploring underground transit tunnels to address the city's traffic issues, asking commissioners to consider their feasibility. The proposal aims to discuss engineering challenges, environmental impacts, funding, and integration with existing transit systems—following the city's rejection of extending Miami's Metromover to South Beach. Meiner previously suggested contacting Elon Musk's Boring Company in 2022. Miami Beach faces unique challenges for such projects, including chronic flooding, porous limestone foundations, and low elevation.
