Abstract
Workers recently finished the last piece of tunnel for Kuala Lumpur’s second metro line, capping a program where autonomous tunneling machines have been operating remotely since 2016. Getting to that point took a poke by a seasoned tunneling director and TBM manager who found an unlikely duo of young, computer savvy, code-writing engineers who brought steering, advancement, excavation, and slurry operations under one operating system.
