The boring company tunnels are a problem.

They don't have the boring normal stuff you need for an actual transit line, like service access or evacuation routes or proper ventilation. They're being disruptive by ignoring everything we've learned since the 1800s about tunnel building. It might be easier to retrofit than dig a fresh tunnel, but at that point you're limited to the route they dug, which probably isn't as useful for transporting people instead of cars.
