Dubai Roads and Transport Authority and The Boring Company signed a definitive partnership to implement the Dubai Loop, starting with a pilot route. The pilot will construct a 6.4 km (4-mile) underground vehicle tunnel with four stations linking the Dubai International Financial Centre and Dubai Mall. The project aims to improve passenger mobility in high-density areas with faster construction and lower surface disruption than conventional systems. The full network could extend up to 22.5 km (14 miles) with 19 stations connecting Dubai World Trade Centre, the financial district, and Business Bay. Tunnels will be 12 feet (3.6 meters) in diameter and dedicated to vehicle transport.
