Figured out? Where do we have long near-vacuum tunnels in a seismic area?

I take it you mean to imply that by "figured out" I mean we have a working example. Obviously not, or we wouldn't be lacking a hyperloop. By figured out I mean all the requisite problems have been solved. It isn't a mystery how we could build a tube and put vacuum pumps on it. And we've built plenty of complex structures in seismic areas.
