隧道的大部份路段均位於霍桑市際機場英语Hawthorne Municipal Airport (California)的機場範圍外部,有一個非常短的部分位於机场围栏的角落處,但並非位處跑道上[2]。 隧道起點Dominguez雨水道和克伦肖大道之間的SpaceX停車場下方,穿過120西街,一條大直路和微轉彎後抵達終點。隧道的中間處計劃连接一個小型汽車升降機[3]

2016年12月17日, 伊隆·马斯克 表示對塞車感到沮丧,因而著手興建隧道[4]。2017年4月前,鑽洞公司获得一个二手的隧道掘进机,並把機器運送至霍桑,并塗上公司的標誌[5]

On 31 January 2018 the Boring Company acquired the land around a family house at 3834 West 119th Place for $0.5 million.[6] On 9 May 2018, the Boring Company acquired land on the corner of West 120th and Prairie Avenue for $2 million, purchasing the corner plots 309 and 308 at 12007 Prairie Avenue[7] and Plots 304‒307 behind.[8]

On 5 October 2018, the Hawthorne City Council granted an easement for up to 2,600米(8,600英尺) of tunnel, in exchange for a structural encroachment fee of $2.5 million. Permission for the first 210米(700英尺) of tunnel under SpaceX's own land had been obtained earlier.[9]

On 17 October 2018, in preparation for opening "The Brick Store", the company applied for permission to paint the building at 12003 Prairie Avenue in The Boring Company black-and-white corporate colours.[10]

隧道原定在2018年12月10日舉行開幕儀式[11],其後押後至12月18日[12]

運作

2018年12月18日,鑽洞試驗隧道正式開始運作,所使用的車輛類似導向巴士。車隊中的特斯拉X型车最高時速為65公里。
