At the Baltic Sea construction of the world's longest underwater rail and road tunnel is underway. The 18-kilometer passageway, due to be completed in 2029, will link Denmark and Germany. The €10 billion project crosses a stretch of the Baltic Sea known as the Fehmarn Belt and will have two double-lane motorways and two electrified rail tracks. The entire tunnel will be built using pre-fab concrete elements.
Right now it's not much more than Europe's largest construction site on the coast of Denmark, 2000 workers are busy preparing for the tunnel. It will consist of pre-fab sections, currently undergoing testing. The pre-fab segments the tunnel will be built from will later allow for two tracks for trains and two roadways for cars and other vehicles. Each one is over 200 meters long and 42 meters wide. The segments will be built on land, lowered into the sea and connected at a depth of 30 meters.

Although this is a huge and expensive project, it will save both the environment and economy in the long run. Saving longer transports through Jutland, or more polluting transportation by ship. Denmark chose to finance the more expensive, but also more environmentally friendly solution of a tunnel instead of a bridge. Ensuring this will absolutely be a win win in the long run.
@jakobraahauge7299

there's the slight caveat that the immense quantities of concrete will set a truly immense carbon footprint themselves - the actual carbon reduction will be very little in total, kf it won't in fact encourage so much traffic that it will end up making a bigger carbon footprint than if it had just been kept as a ferry line 😅
@buffalox8492
@buffalox8492 Год назад
@@jakobraahauge7299 Yes you are right, concrete is a huge problem regarding CO2, the biggest danish company to make concrete, has a process that saves 30% of the CO2, compared to traditional production. Hopefully it will get better with more research. Ferry lines cannot pull nearly comparable traffic to what the tunnel will. The huge advantage will be from rerouting traffic that currently goes through Jutland and the Great Belt connection, more than what is saved on the very polluting ferries.

Just make something clear. Germany is not building the worlds longest underwater rail and road tunnel. It will be completely built and run by Denmark, and is paid by Denmark and a little bit of EU. All Germany is doing is the connecting infrastructure on the German side. Germany opted out of the partnership after stalling the project for 15 years. Though many German Nationals have migrated to Denmark to work on the project, since it is better paid than most German construction work, due to the higher wages in Denmark.

Interesting how there isn't a single mention of the fact that it was the German state that was a major delaying factor in the project as they had no interrest in it at all and it only was possible to get the project started because Denmark decided to take the majority if not all of the costs for this project. But now that things are moving ahead it suddenly can be presented as this amazing common project 🤷‍♂🤦‍♂ Btw, it's not the first time Germany is a major obstacle when it comes to common european infrastructure projects. You can ask pretty much every neighbouring state to Germany. So much for Deutschland Geschwindigkeit.

Unless something new is discovered and submitted to the court, there is no way to change the verdict, or delay the project. In Germany each and every interest group can bring the case to the German court system, and they often have to be heard individually. So while there were less than a handfull of court cases in Denmark, there were thousands of complaints submitted to the German court system. A large part of those supported by the greedy ferry companie not wanting the competion of the tunnel. The Ferry company even paid for "protestors" to demonstrate against the project.

I think that's highly unlikely! Riding a bike through an 18 km tunnel is neither safe nor healthy. All of Denmark's other cross-sea links ban cyclists and pedestrians. Mopeds may be allowed if they can be designated as motorcycles. A question of speed, I suppose.

You can take your bike on the train through the tunnel, just like over the existing bridges from Jutland through to Sweden.

Don’t you worry, Scandlines has no intention of canceling the ferries once the tunnel is there. A lot of people like to stretch their legs once in awhile, and the ferry company still has 1-day return trip tickets for approx. 40€ on the Rødby-Puttgarten line. And the latest I’ve heard is that it intents to keep those tickets in the future as well, so it may take 75 minutes each way (boarding + sail time) but if you save 30-40€ alot of people will do that. Business travellers won’t, but alot of the rest? Sure.

In context, 2022 4,5mil cars drove over Öresundsbron. It cost 36$ one way ticket with car and 95$ for a truck. That’s 162 million $ minimum each year. It’s hard to calculate tax profits as for example gods will be able to shipped faster and cheaper to the rest of Europe from Scandinavia. This will make trade more profitable etc) Then you have work abroad. That can create, I don’t know befits. In general globalization is greater for humanity.

@ EarnestBunbury Half the Danish population lives in the eastern part, and will have a much more direct and cost efficient access to Europe. As of now they have to go across Danmark ( including the toll-connection "Storebælt" ) to get to the border to Germany. The railroads across Danmark are stressed to capacity transporting goods to and from Europe and Scandinavia. My biggest hope with this is, that a highspeed train connection between city centers Copenhagen Berlin/Hamburg and beyond will replace planes over time.

@@ViktorFromDK It was/is the political process, that takes time! There is an endless amount of "projects", that they have to prioritize between. "Everybody" has each their own preferred projects, so obviously it takes time to agree politically on which ones to go ahead with first. Once the decision is made, in this case both left-, center- and rightleaning Parties are behind this, then the ACTUAL building of the tunnel will follow quite closely to the planned scedule. As shown with both Storebælt and Øresund.

I hope NATO are already paying very close attention and will continue to do so after the tunnel is completed, to monitor any Russian submarines or 'fishing vessels' lurking there. Nobody should trust them, and such a tunnel can be very vulnerable I guess. I hope it’s not my job to warn them, I’m sometimes shocked by how naive the people dealing with such matters can be.
