The Boring Company (TBC) and the non-profit organisation Morgan’s have marked the ceremonial start of an “inclusion tunnel” in San Antonio, Texas.
The nearly 1.6km-long Ultra-Accessible tunnel will connect Morgan’s Hotel and Morgan’s Wonderland, with stops at Morgan’s Wonder Care and Morgan’s Multi-Assistance Centre. The bi-directional route will provide an electric shuttle for people of all abilities to travel between the destinations.
Morgan’s says the tunnel, which will be built by TBC’s Prufrock 5, will be the first Ultra-Accessible tunnel. It is also TBC’s first tunnel for a non-profit organisation.
The project is being funded by an anonymous donor, who is also supporting other capital projects on Morgan’s Inclusion Campus. When completed, the tunnel will be fully owned and operated by Morgan’s.
In 2010, Morgan’s Wonderland became the world’s first Ultra-Accessible, fully-inclusive theme park. The campus includes Morgan’s Inspiration Island splash park, Morgan’s Camp, Morgan’s Sports, and Morgan’s Multi-Assistance Centre.
