Hyperloop Transportation Technologies (HyperloopTT) has said it is confident its solution is a game-changer for the future of Australian transport, promising, for example, to send people from Sydney to Canberra in 22 minutes.
Pitching his company’s idea to the Australian House Infrastructure, Transport and Cities Committee on Thursday, HyperloopTT co-founder Bibop G. Gresta said his company’s solution “promises to change our life”.
“Hyperloop presents an opportunity for Australia to invest in the future, to write a new chapter in its transportation history,” Greste said.
Appearing before the committee alongside Greste was Wesley Heron, who leads the company’s efforts in Australia. According to Heron, HyperloopTT can make it easier for people to live outside metropolitan areas and still commute to cities for work.
