Five years after the announcement of the Hyperloop project connecting Cleveland to Chicago in 27 minutes, those behind it say it's still moving forward.
CLEVELAND — Five years ago on a cold February morning, city and state leaders, along with the Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency and Hyperloop Transportation Technologies, gathered at the Great Lakes Science Center to announce the funding of a feasibility study. It was a $1.3 million look into whether it would be possible to build a Cleveland to Chicago hyperloop that delivers passengers from one location to the other in 27 minutes.
