From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Fixed link across elsewhere?
Can anyone add more info on the possible plans of contructing a tunnel and/or bridge across to the other side elswhere? I am quite curious as to whether any steps have been taken to decide to build infrastructure links across the:
Anyone with inside knowledge on any of these? I've posted similar requests elsewhere. Gruesome Twosome! 8v] //Big Adamsky 20:42, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
- I will try to add something about the Fehmarn Belt bridge (using Google, a very good tool. I can read Danish and German), since I am interested in this subject.
- Also, you can add Bering strait and Kvarken to the list, as there have been suggestions (not by any government) to build bridges there. BIL 21:15, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

- Wonderful! I don't think there are any serious contemplations going on to link Russia with the United States up there, though. It would be uneconomical since so few people would use it and also technically extremely complicated given to climatic conditions. //Big Adamsky 21:21, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

- Yes, but that haven't prevented magazines to write detailed articles and tv stations (e.g. Discovery) to have programs about it. In reality, today there is no ferry across it and not even any road even in Alaska. Across Kvarken, at least there is a ferry, although few have taken that proposal seriously.

- As far as I know, there are no serious plans in place to tunnel or bridge across Georgia Strait. There's occasional talk about a bridge, of course, but nothing more. It would happen over BC Ferries' dead body... heqs 15:50, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

- A connection of this size which is actually planned by the government to be built within 10-15 years of time is the tunnel under the Boknafjord, Norway. That tunnel would be about 24 km long and 350 m deep, and the longest underwater road tunnel in the world. BIL 21:49, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
