in life •  7 years ago 

Los Angeles-based Hyperloop One, a startup backed by Virgin Atlantic’s Richard Branson to create ultra-high-velocity transportation solution on Thursday has signed a MoU with Karnataka government to conduct a feasibility study in Bangalore.

The study will identify potential routes in Karnataka to improve connections between its emerging industrial hubs.

If the project comes to fruition, passengers will be able to travel from Bangalore to Chennai in a matter of just 20 minutes.

Virgin's Hyperloop One is conducting similar studies along with the Maharashtra and Andhra Pradesh government.
“The introduction of a technology like hyperloop will further add to the pace at which the state wants to grow,” said Priyank Kharge, minister for ITBT & Tourism, Government of Karnataka at the Bengaluru Technology Summit.hyperloop-one2-770x433.jpgHyperloop-Ones-XP-1-vehicle-being-prepared-for-testing-in-Nevada.-Photo-Courtesy-Hyperloop-703x435.jpg
