Project Hyperloop in Britain?

in #technology8 years ago

Project Hyperloop is really old, but this time it is more spoken about it than it is done to make it real. For those who don't knot what Hyperloop shoud be - really large piping system where capsules with cargo or persons travels at speed of 1200 km/h. Succesful test rides takes place in nevada desert, but it was unknown where it will be realised.

Private companies, which are bringing Hyperloop to reality, did not build even one true path for itto . The piping system has to lead, for example, from Sweden to Finland, Hyperloop should connect Europe with Asia and one route should grow between Vienna, Bratislava and Budapest.

But now Alan James, Vice President of Business Development found out, that in Britain is reall interest of this technology. In the UK would build tracks Hyperloop the organization Innovative UK, which is supported by the British government. And where exactly the line should lead? As a starting point, of course, it will be London. It should be connected to Manchester, Liverpool and Leeds. And as Alan James warns it will not be just about linking London and other cities, but also a combination of other cities with each other.
A trip between the capital of the United Kingdom and Manchester should be estimated to take about 18 minutes. It is approximately 330 kilometers that divides these two places! Thanks Hyperloop it will be possible to get from one place to another in negligible time and faster than would be possible after a high-speed rail.

There is also a proposal that Hyperloop in Britain should not be built on the high pillars as it was planned and presented by other routes. Instead, Hyperloop could ride in a kind of underground tunnel, in which will be the natural landscape and trees, for example. Pipelines with high-speed transports cabins would not interfere with the natural character of the countryside.

Lets hope it will succeed and ticket price wont be too high.

Looks awesome man. I didn't know about it. Thanks for sharing the info @zettar

I really dont think this is a particular good idea xD
Lets form some human cannonballs.... yippeyyy... mash
Watch this:

build those instead of roads, build a local too. Hop in a 'pod' to go to the store for example. Never buy a car again.
