Silly question: could they evolve the infrastructure to an actual transit system?

SOLAR FREAKING ROADWAYS

What infrastructure?

[–] laurelraven@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 10 months ago

I'd say subways but I don't think the tunnels are big enough so they'd probably have to be re-bored larger and then re-reinforced

But probably a better use for the system than what they tried to do

Looks like a pretty crap ‘loop’. It’s a straight line 100 feet long. It doesn’t even go anywhere. Of course it’s a failure.
