To me this entirely seems like a marketing stunt and a last ditch effort. Looking at recent major wholesale orders of Tesla cars, Las Vegas' Tesla loop comes to mind.
A fleet of Tesla cars in a glorified cave taking tourists from point A to point B which was marketed to be a Boring company project with that concept video that blew everyone's mind off. It may as well be an underwhelming private transport facility that resembles a lazy river [0] being marketed as revolutionary public transport system [1].

- anyfactor 5y agoThat news was in my second link. I enjoyed this video which reflects my pessimism of Las Vegas Loop: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvK2i9Jxy5c https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvK2i9Jxy5c I think there are better options for public transport.
