Hah! Caltrans couldn't even get the 710 extension tunnel beyond environmental studies and it had the support of most of the east side of metropolitan Los Angeles! A town of fewer than 30,000 people has been fighting progress on that freeway since the 1960s [1] and in the last few years Caltrans, finally admitting defeat, began selling off all the homes it bought along the planned route. If a few upper-middle class lawyers with a single town's annual budget can fight off one of the busiest freeway extensions in decades, Elon Musk has no hope for getting permits for a much bigger tunnel project. Judges are the ones who decide final right of way, not Presidents.
