The route could transport 54, 720 people a day and reduce travel time from 5.5 hours by car to a 28-minute journey.


HTT choose Ito World as one of its partners to help outline the socio-economic benefits of the interstate route. The visualisation was presented at HTT’s civic event, which was attended by dignitaries of both states.

Johan Herrlin, CEO at Ito World, said: “We're at the beginning of a revolution in transportation and Hyperloop Transportation Technologies is at the bleeding edge. We're excited to be counted as one of their contributing partners, helping to explain the social, economic, and environmental benefits of Hyperloop.”

Craig Taylor, senior data visualization design manager at Ito World, added: “The Ito World Design Lab’s goal was to create something both informative and captivating to tell Hyperloop’s story. We synthesized population demographics along with drive time catchments to create state-of-the-art visuals that emphasized the advantages of Hyperloop’s vision.”
