The project aims to create a 10-mile tunnel that would allow travelers to get from downtown Nashville to Nashville International Airport in about eight minutes.

Tennessee Governor Bill Lee says the Nashville tunnels will come at “zero cost” to taxpayers, and will instead be “entirely privately funded” by The Boring Company and its partners. Once completed, the “Tesla in tunnels” system will ferry people from the airport to downtown in around eight minutes.

Nashville's Mayor reveals he knew about The Boring Company's interest in the tunnel connecting BNA to downtown for about a year without offering support.
