COPENHAGEN — Denmark has approved the start of construction for what will become the longest tunnel of its kind, connecting it with Germany. • Work on the Danish side of the world’s longest immersed tunnel is scheduled to begin on January 1, 2021, Denmark’s Ministry of Transport said in a statement on April 24. • The Femern Belt link will connect the Danish island of Lolland and Puttgarden, a village and ferry harbor on the island of Fehmarn in Northern Germany. • The project is estimated to cost 52.6 billion Danish kroner, or US$7.6 billion, and will include an 18-kilometer electrified double-track railway and four motorway lanes. • When completed it will shorten the journey across the Femern Belt to 10 minutes by car or seven minutes by train, compared to today’s 45-minute ferry crossing. • It is expected to open for traffic in mid-2029, New Europe reports, citing a press conference by Denmark’s Minister of Transport Benny Engelbrecht. • SOURCES: Femern A/S, The Engineer, New Europe, The New York Times • https://femern.com/en • https://www.theengineer.co.uk/total-i... • https://www.neweurope.eu/article/denm... • https://www.nytimes.com/reuters/2020/... • TomoNews is your best source for real news.
