Accelerate Civilization With Subterranean Technology

To solve the problem of soul-destroying traffic, transportation networks need to match our 3D cities. Tunneling enables economical, layered transportation networks that can be expanded over time.
Today’s roadways occupy valuable surface area in cities. Tunnels put underground space to work and augment existing transportation systems.
Weatherproof: rain, snow, wind, and surface temperatures do not affect system operation. Invisible: Safe: Fast:
Expandable: tunnels can be extended and new levels added as additional capacity is required.
Once a tunnel boring machine has reached its operating depth of two tunnel diameters, tunneling causes less noise and vibration at the surface than a pedestrian.
Most utilities are located within 10 feet of the surface. Our tunnels are typically more than 30 feet below the surface, where underground space is currently unused.
To make the most of excavated dirt, we are developing a way to reuse dirt for bricks and pavers for use in anything from affordable housing to patios to the Pyramids (a famous recent example of dirt-based construction).
