原文標題: Get a close look at shuttle system 40 feet beneath the convention center 近距離觀察會展中心地下40英尺的穿梭系統 原文連結: https://reurl.cc/nn2nNv 發布時間: April 8, 2021 - 4:44 pm 原文內容: After construction crews spent months drilling, digging, mucking, paving, lining and electrifying tunnels, representatives of Las Vegas media were invited underground to get their first look at The Boring Co.’s $52.5 million people-mover system Thursday. Trips through the tunnels are an “only in Las Vegas” experience with LED lighting that cycles through a rainbow of colors from second to second lining the tunnel walls. Cars have enough clearance in the tunnels that riders can open doors and get out in an emergency. Drivers hit maximum speeds of about 35 mph on the straightaways of the tunnels. The electric vehicles run silently on the underground paved surfaces. At the ends of the tunnel, the Model X and Model 3 Teslas climb a ramp to reach the surface. Parallel tunnels nearly a mile long will shuttle conventioneer passengers to and from three stations when the system, developed by entrepreneur Elon Musk, becomes fully operational. A certificate of occupancy has been issued to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority. Crews began drilling the 4,475 feet of dirt and rock 40 feet underground in November 2019, completing the first tunnel bore in February 2020. Drilling concluded on the second tunnel in May 2020, and efforts to pave and light the tunnels ended late last year with several safety checks completed before the tunnels were turned over to the LVCVA. Throughout the construction, The Boring Co. wouldn’t let media members see progress but invited members of the LVCVA board of directors and dignitaries from other municipalities to see them. Musk tweeted occasional photos from the tunnels and stations. Steve Hill, president and CEO of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, said Tesla sedans would be used initially for the system, and eventually there may be higher-capacity vehicles. “It seems that during a pandemic is not the time to be increasing capacity,” Hill said before several reporters took off on rides to the ends of the system. Hill said the Tesla fleet started out at 11 vehicles and is expected to expand to 35 and eventually reach 60. Once operational, The Boring Co. will drive Tesla vehicles through the tunnel, turning a 1½-mile, 15-minute walk on the surface into a trip that takes a couple of minutes. Tesla vehicles capable of carrying up to 16 passengers are expected to be used in the system, but it hasn’t been disclosed when those vehicles would be delivered. While the tunnels and vehicles are designed to operate in autonomous mode, LVCVA officials have said Boring Co. drivers would be employed in the early stages of operation for additional safety. The system is designed with three stations, one underground near the entrance of the Las Vegas Convention Center’s Central Hall and two above-ground stations at the two ends of the system. Paved ramps are in place for vehicles to climb to the surface for above-ground loading on the east and west ends of the route. The east station, known as Station 1, is near an entrance to the South Hall, while Station 3, on the west side of the Convention Center campus, is near the new West Hall. No details on queueing and loading procedures or wait times for rides have been given. Future tunnel projects Other Boring Co. tunnel projects are on the horizon in Las Vegas. Direct tunnels that would link the Las Vegas Convention Center with Encore Las Vegas and with Resorts World Las Vegas have been negotiated by Wynn Resorts Ltd., operators of Encore, and the Genting Group, which is building Resorts World. In addition, The Boring Co. has negotiated with the city of Las Vegas and Clark County to develop what is being called the “Vegas Loop,” a 15-mile underground transit system with stations at local resorts and attractions. Hill said Boring has indicated the cost to ride the Vegas Loop system would be somewhere between the amount it would take to ride a bus and the amount it would cost for an Uber ride. Like traditional ride-hailing companies, the cost would be per vehicle and not per person. The biggest difference between the Vegas Loop and the Las Vegas Convention Center Loop, besides length, is the convention center people-mover, contracted to be built by the LVCVA, will be free for convention customers to ride while the Vegas Loop is being built on speculation with resorts paying for their own stations and riders being charged to be transported within the tunnels to their destinations. The contract to build the Convention Center Loop was controversial because Musk’s company had never built one for commercial use and the local system will be the first one to be operated. The city of Miami has taken an interest in the system because it’s considering a tunnel beneath the Miami River to connect downtown with the Brickell Financial District. One big advantage of the Musk system is that it’s inexpensive to build. Tunnels are much narrower than conventional subway tunnels and The Boring Co. ’s drilling machine manufactures bricks to line the tunnel as it digs, making it economical to build. The Boring Co. has said that the citywide tunnel system would operate like ride-hailing with a passenger choosing the destination and the vehicle taking the most direct route there without stops at other stations. The company hasn’t announced how much it expects to charge passengers. 機翻如下: 在施工人員花了幾個月的時間鑽探、挖掘、搗毀、鋪設、襯砌和電氣化隧道之後,拉斯維 加斯的媒體代表週四被邀請到地下,第一次看到Boring Co.公司耗資5250萬美元的人流系 統。 穿越隧道是一種 "只有在拉斯維加斯才有 "的體驗,隧道壁上的LED燈一秒一秒地迴圈播 放著彩虹色。 汽車在隧道內有足夠的空隙,乘客可以在緊急情況下打開車門下車。 司機在隧道的直道上最高時速約為35英里。電動車在地下鋪設的路面上靜靜地運行。在隧 道的兩端,Model X和Model 3特斯拉爬上坡道到達地面。 由企業家埃隆-馬斯克(Elon Musk)開發的這一系統全面投入使用後,近一英里長的平行 隧道將把會展乘客從三個車站接送過來。拉斯維加斯會議和遊客管理局已經獲得了入住證 書。 工作人員於2019年11月開始鑽探地下40英尺的4475英尺土石,於2020年2月完成第一條隧 道鑽孔。第二條隧道的鑽探工作於2020年5月結束,隧道的鋪設和照明工作於去年年底結 束,在隧道移交給LVCVA之前完成了多項安全檢查。 在整個施工過程中,The Boring Co.不讓媒體人看到進度,但邀請LVCVA董事會成員和其 他城市的政要來看。 馬斯克在推特上偶爾會發一些隧道和車站的照片。 拉斯維加斯會議和遊客管理局總裁兼首席執行官史蒂夫-希爾表示,特斯拉轎車最初將用 於該系統,最終可能會有更高容量的車輛。 "似乎在武漢肺炎大流行期間不是增加容量的時候,"希爾在幾位記者乘車前往系統兩端之 前說。 希爾說,特斯拉車隊最初只有11輛車,預計將擴大到35輛,最終達到60輛。 一旦投入運營,The Boring Co.將駕駛特斯拉車輛通過隧道,將地面上1英里半、15分鐘 的路程變成幾分鐘的行程。預計該系統將使用能夠搭載16名乘客的特斯拉車輛,但尚未透 露這些車輛何時交付。 雖然隧道和車輛被設計成以自主模式運行,但LVCVA官員表示,為了更多的安全,在運營 的早期階段將雇傭Boring Co.的司機。 該系統設計有三個網站,一個在拉斯維加斯會議中心中央大廳入口附近的地下,兩個在系 統兩端的地上網站。在線路的東、西兩端都設有鋪設的坡道,供車輛爬到地面進行地面裝 載。東站被稱為1號站,靠近南廳的一個入口,而3號站位於會展中心園區西側,靠近新西 廳。 關於排隊和上客程式以及候車乘車時間,目前還沒有詳細說明。 未來的隧道項目 其他Boring公司的隧道項目也在拉斯維加斯的地平線上。Encore Las Vegas和拉斯維加斯 名勝世界的運營商Wynn Resorts Ltd.和正在建造名勝世界的雲頂集團已經就連接拉斯維 加斯會議中心和Encore Las Vegas以及拉斯維加斯名勝世界的直接隧道進行了談判。 此外,Boring公司還與拉斯維加斯市和克拉克縣協商開發被稱為 "拉斯維加斯環線 "的項 目,這是一個15英里長的地下交通系統,在當地的度假村和景點設有網站。 希爾表示,Boring已經表示,乘坐Vegas Loop系統的費用將介於乘坐公車和乘坐Uber的費 用之間。和傳統的乘車公司一樣,費用將是按車而不是按人計算。 拉斯維加斯環線和拉斯維加斯會議中心環線最大的區別除了長度之外,就是由LVCVA承包 建設的會議中心人車,將免費供會議客戶乘坐,而拉斯維加斯環線則是投機取巧,由度假 村自己出錢建站,乘客在隧道內被運送到目的地時要收費。 建造會議中心環路的合同是有爭議的,因為馬斯克的公司從未建造過商業用途的環路,而 當地的系統將是第一個運營的系統。邁阿密市對該系統很感興趣,因為它正在考慮在邁阿 密河下面修建一條隧道,以連接市中心和布裡克爾金融區。 馬斯克系統的一大優勢是建造成本低廉。隧道比傳統的地鐵隧道窄得多,The Boring Co. 的鑽機在挖掘時製造磚塊鋪設隧道,因此建造起來很經濟。 The Boring Co.表示,全城的隧道系統將像乘車一樣運營,乘客選擇目的地,車輛走最直 接的路線到達那裡,而不需要在其他車站停留。 該公司還沒有宣佈預計向乘客收取多少費用。 心得/評論: 等這個東西等很久了 這個東西的概念基本上可以簡化成 "在限定的軌道和空間中,用自動駕駛的載具,做最效率化的運輸。" 各位有發現一件事情嗎? 這其實可以立刻推行到任何國家或地方 舉個例來說: 1.場景:台灣,國道高速公路 2.限定自用車駕駛必須使用汽車載具來運送自己的汽車和乘客到目的地交流道 也就是說,上交流道前先停進去一個大型停車塔 每個停車位停著一個自動駕駛汽車載具,形狀像一個棧板 車子停上棧板以後,輸入目的地交流道,然後把自己的車子熄火 接著這個棧板就把你和車運到那個目的地的停車塔 你自己再從那個停車塔開車出來 3.優點: 時間和能源利用最效率化、 運輸最安全化、駕駛疲勞最小化、 因為在限定的空間裡面實行,自動駕駛技術難度低,不用特斯拉,可立即實現、 不用作天頂、車殼,成本最低、載具維修便宜、 直接相容所有各種車輛、 現有的交流道系統面積可以大幅縮減到兩個大型停車塔的面積大小,節省城市面積、 直接鍊成國內的MIH平台,創造新獨角獸,新護國群山。 4.缺點: 一定要取得政府特許才能做, 否則民營企業光是在高速公路上面被惡意開罰單惡整就會被直接搞死。 要是政府允許非自駕也可以同時使用高速公路, 雖然技術上可行,但是自動駕駛的難度和危險度就會立刻拉高非常多。 因為無人力、便宜、又比人類駕駛安全一萬倍,長途駕駛的計程車司機可以直接去死了 台鐵會倒。 -- 真希望政府有膽略有魄力去抄襲人家企業家的創意 就算請不到這些企業家,至少有膽子去抄吧 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 1.200.169.222 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Stock/M.1617958417.A.3AE.html

特斯拉必須自己挖隧道 就是為了排除其他駕駛的干擾,創造單純的環境 但是這在東亞國家就是國家下令封閉使用環境 使用通用載具來相容所有車輛 就可以輕鬆解決的事情 美國不行這樣做,牽涉到州政府和聯邦政府的體制問題 ※ 編輯: nangle (1.200.169.222 臺灣), 04/09/2021 17:00:22
