The Boring Company begins hiring for Nashville's Music City Loop

"Elon Musk's The Boring Company has started recruitment efforts for the Music City Loop, an underground tunnel system designed to link downtown Nashville with Nashville International Airport. Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee expressed strong support for the project, describing it as a cost-free alternative to traditional mass transit systems that could ease traffic congestion in the city. Initial digging began in mid-August, with visible progress reported by September 1, as noted in a WKRN report."

""We've been trying to find ways, Metro Nashville has in particular, to develop transit in the city for a long time. It costs billions and billions of dollars to build out transit systems. We now have an opportunity to have a transit system that costs the taxpayers nothing," Lee said, calling the effort the fast lane to the city's future."

The Boring Company has begun recruiting for the Music City Loop, an underground tunnel system linking downtown Nashville with Nashville International Airport. The company is seeking engineers, electricians, mechanics, and operations coordinators. Initial digging began in mid-August and showed visible progress by September 1. Governor Bill Lee called the project a cost-free alternative to expensive transit builds and said it would not burden taxpayers. The loop aims to provide a fast connection between the city center and the airport and mirrors other Boring projects. Officials say the company is cooperating with state permitting and regulatory requirements. Local residents expressed concerns about rapid approvals, environmental impacts, and whether the tunnel will primarily serve tourists.
