The other day, Hyperloop One published a statement saying that engineers have already begun to build the first leg of the DevLoop route. It was decided to build a pipe in which passenger capsules would move with great speed very soon in North Las Vegas.
Previously, many investors and officials from different countries expressed a desire to start building a new type of transport system. Recently it was reported that negotiations are underway to build the Hyperloop highway in the United Arab Emirates. According to the developers of the system, the journey from Dubai to Abu Dhabi will last only about ten minutes, and this, for a second, is more than 160 kilometers!
But it seems that the Las Vegas authorities were the quickest of all, so they decided to move from words to deeds. The first pipe compartment is already installed, construction continues! Presumably, by 2020, residents and guests of Las Vegas will already be able to use the new transport system, which will carry out both passenger and cargo transportation.
“It will be possible to travel in capsules of three different types: simple, booth of increased comfort, and for business people the capsule option will be available for meetings. Freight and passenger cars will be combined into one. It's pretty ordinary. And yes, where without fashionable applications for smartphones? You can buy a ticket directly from your phone, ”the Electrek website reports, citing the press service of Hyperloop One.
It sounds cool, it looks impressive, but in order for the future to come, all this needs to be built, tested and launched. Fingers crossed, I really want to ride through the pipe with a breeze, right?
