According to the news on August 25, SpaceX is negotiating with the local Cameron county to dig a tunnel locally, which can not only shorten the commuting time of the company's employees, It can also not affect the passage of local residents during the closure of the Expressway near the facility p> < p > < / P > < p > SpaceX's rocket assembly and launch facilities are along the Boca Chica highway. In recent years, with the increasing frequency of SpaceX testing or launching starship prototypes in southern Texas, there are more and more applications to close the Boca Chica highway p> < p > residents in southern Texas mainly use this highway from Brownsville and nearby towns to boccachica beach at the southernmost tip of Texas. When the highway is closed, no one can enter or stay on the beach p> < p > this situation has become a headache for SpaceX. Companies often have to close roads, transport rockets or various equipment along roads, test and launch them. It also annoys nearby residents and those who like to go to the beach p> < p > now, Elon Musk, the founder of SpaceX, has a potential solution. It is reported that the senior executives of boring, Musk's tunnel excavation company, met with Cameron county officials in July to discuss digging a tunnel from the south end of South Padre Island to the north end of Boca Chica beach to build an alternative channel for Boca Chica expressway p> < p > tunneling has several purposes. After the completion of the tunnel, the public can enter the beach at any time except during rocket launch and high-pressure test. In addition, the tunnel can also greatly shorten the commuting time of SpaceX employees living in South Padre Island, Isabel port and other places. At present, it takes more than an hour to travel from these places to the company's starship base p> < p > the straight-line distance from South Padre Island to the north end of boccachica beach is less than 1km, but it needs to cross a shipping channel, so the tunnel must be dug quite deep. Boring had previously dug a tunnel in Las Vegas, with a total length of less than 3 kilometers and a cost of $52 million. Cameron county is reportedly unwilling to pay for the project in South Texas p> < p > boccachka tunnel is still a concept, and it is unclear how the negotiations between SpaceX and Cameron county are progressing. The project may be suspended until the Federal Aviation Administration completes the environmental impact assessment of space X. If the company obtains FAA approval to launch starships from the Starship base to orbit, SpaceX may go all out to develop the Starship base launch site p> < p > SpaceX's development activities may include the construction of tunnels, as this will enable the company to often or even completely close the Boca Chica highway due to launch activities( Chen Chen) < / P > < p >
