The Elon Musk-owned Boring Co. has approached UNLV to gauge the university’s interest in a possible Vegas Loop station there, which would expand the underground transit system outside of the resort corridor and downtown Las Vegas.
Boring engaged UNLV leaders in June about the possibility of adding a station at the school’s campus. UNLV President Keith Whitfield is scheduled to provide information at the next meeting of the Nevada System of Higher Education Board of Regents on Sept. 9-10.
This marks the first known engagement by Boring with an entity outside of tourist and convention hot spots.
Backup material for the meeting reveals that the school is evaluating where a potential station could work on campus.
