<\/a>Epic Universe<\/p>\nThese tunnels would help connect guests from Universal CityWalk<\/a>, Islands of Adventure<\/a>, and Universal Studios<\/a> to Epic Universe<\/a>, which are about 5 miles apart from each other. However, whether or not these tunnels will actually be built has remained to be seen, but there\u2019s a new promising update you\u2019ve got to know about.<\/p>\n According to the Orlando Business Journal<\/a>, contract negotiations are currently underway with the district that oversees Universal and Elon Musk\u2019s The Boring Co. to get things moving on building these potential tunnels. The tunnels would be a new form of transportation to move guests around. It would eliminate car traffic, potentially greatly reducing the amount of travel time between these sections of the resort.<\/p>\n Back in February, The Boring Co. was selected as the preferred bidder on the project by the Shingle Creek Transit & Utility Community Development District. While the company\u2019s proposal noted the loop is designed with future expansion in mind, it did not include a map to show what it may look like for Orlando. A rival bidder, however, Sunshine Connection Partners, did include a map that could give us insight into how this project may look.<\/p>\n With this proposed expansion, if The Boring Co. were to do something similar, we could see stops at:<\/p>\n Rosen Centre Hotel Previously, Joshua Wallack, owner of Mango\u2019s Tropical Cafe on International Drive, said that, \u201cBoring is looking at the whole I-Drive district, basically having the Orange County Convention Center to Epic Universe on a [loop].\u201d However, Maria Triscari, the president and CEO of The International Drive Resort Area Chamber of Commerce, has said that she\u2019s \u201cnot been involved in the ongoing discussions between the district and Boring\u201d and has not been part of discussions between the two parties about expanding the potential tunnels along the tourism corridor.<\/p>\n District Manager Jennifer Walden has said officials are working with local stakeholders on this transportation system project, saying that at this current stage, they are \u201cexploring operational and financial feasibility, including close collaboration with local stakeholders.\u201d Therefore, it sounds like this project is moving along well, but the possible expansions are up in the air.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n More Recent Universal Orlando Resort News!<\/p>\n We\u2019ll be sure to keep you updated with all the latest news about this upcoming project, so stay tuned to AllEars!<\/p>\n 6 Things I Wish I Knew Before Riding Monsters Unchained at Epic Universe<\/a><\/p>\n Need a vacation from planning your vacation?<\/p>\n Feeling overwhelmed planning your dream Disney vacation?
