Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said on Twitter on Sunday
that his Boring Company, which aims to lower the cost of building
high-speed transit tunnels, has almost completed its first
tunnel. 

The tunnel will open on December 10, Musk tweeted, and will
reportedly run under Hawthorne in the Los Angeles area.

Musk has previously said that his tunneling company
“started
out as a joke” and admitted that the project might fail. Musk
has been relatively tight-lipped about the company’s progress,
and has used several publicity stunts including
selling $500 flamethrowers to fund testing and
development of the project.

In May, Musk said using the future tunneling
system, dubbed the Loop, would cost as
little as $1 per fare. The company has also touted plans
to have its systems run high-speed travel between
cities.
