This is just the convention center. Not quite a mile/1.5k. Vegas has agreed to a loop that connects the casinos to the airport and their football stadium. 30 miles/48k that is going to be a nonstop clusterfuck

Lmao it’s so fucking short they could’ve just built the moving walkway things you see at airports and saved millions

Even 500 feet of a closed single-lane tunnel is a death trap waiting to happen. A dozen shuttle buses could’ve reduced traffic by at least as much for a fraction of the cost, and wouldn’t be a death trap waiting to happen.

Truly, that fucking city is a monument to the hubris of man. Even the ancient Greek playwrights couldn’t have come up with something better.

You get down to a station where you have to call an uber that can only be tesla and eventually it will emerge from the tunnel

IIRC the only one of these that actually exists is some short route between either an airport and convention center or the convention center and a different part of the same convention center, and it is in every respect just a really terrible version of a shuttle service.

in that case, what’s stopping me from walking down the car tunnel and stopping traffic? it isn’t like a cop car can come down there so you could simply run in the opposite direction :galaxy-brain:
