Chicago Infrastructure Trust (CIT) awarded the Boring
Company the contract to design, build, finance, operate and maintain the
Chicago Express Loop, an O’Hare Express service between O’Hare International
Airport (Terminals 1-3) and Block 37 in downtown Chicago. In March, the city
had announced that it had shortlisted the Boring Company and O’Hare Xpress LLC
(Meridiam, Antarctica Capital, JLC Infrastructure, Mott MacDonald and First
Transit). Loop is a high-speed underground public transportation system in
which passengers are transported on autonomous electric skates traveling at
201—241 km/h (125-150 miles per hour). Click here for a video. Visit http://chicagoinfrastructure.org/2018/06/14/company-selected-to-build-and-operate-chicago-express-service/,
