Are either of those particularly disruptive?I was mainly referring to the construction phase, but yes, additional traffic on the scale supported by this tunnel would be disruptive.

“The Boring Company is no longer seeking the development of the Sepulveda test tunnel and instead seeks to construct an operational tunnel at Dodger Stadium ...”
Elon Musk’s Boring Co. drops LA Westside tunnel plan (techcrunch.com)Quote“The Boring Company is no longer seeking the development of the Sepulveda test tunnel and instead seeks to construct an operational tunnel at Dodger Stadium ...”Sounds like they've decided that the benefits of the Sepulveda test tunnel no longer outweigh the disadvantages (costs of construction and fighting in the courts) when they can just build the Dodger Stadium tunnel instead.
This doesn't seem like a big deal. TBC is well underway () to developing a good method to get through the bureaucracy via the Dugout Loop. And they won't be able to do much in Culver City until there are new politicians there.Agreed with Jcc on the big picture. It appears that the Atlantic or the reporter wanted to do a Musk/TBC hit piece. They didn't find much bad. I don't know why they wanted to do a hit piece. Maybe they are doing the bidding of the unions.

I am not familiar with the editorial foundation of the magazine, but if any of the legacy aerospace corporations or automotive manufacturers and/or fossil fuel interests have a stake in it, they would have a reason to discredit Musk and sow a lack of confidence in his enterprises. Basically, it's likely about readership and money.
