Recall that the California company Hyperloop Transportation Technologies was founded about 5 years ago, after the American businessman, owner of Tesla and SpaceX, introduced the concept of high-speed transport system in 2012. The second largest player in the evolving field of Hyperloop the Hyperloop is One company – a subsidiary of Virgin.
From the very beginning special attention to the technology of closed high-speed systems showed the United Arab Emirates. In the UAE capital of Abu Dhabi by 2020, HTT plans to build 10-kilometer of the commercial branch with the possibility of expanding to Dubai, and then to the capital of Saudi Arabia Riyadh, which is about one thousand kilometers.
