The Insane Engineering of Europe’s New Mega-Tunnel

Is this Europe’s most ambitious engineering project of the 21st century? In this video, we take you behind the scenes of one of the world's most incredible construction sites – the Fehmarnbelt Tunnel, which is permanently connecting Denmark and Germany! 🇩🇰🇩🇪 Instead of a traditional bridge, engineers chose to build the world's longest immersed road and rail tunnel. 🚗 18 kilometers long 🚄 A train ride in just 7 minutes (instead of an hour by ferry!) 🏗️ A massive purpose-built factory and millions of tons of concrete How are these colossal reinforced concrete segments, weighing tens of thousands of tons, manufactured and positioned with millimeter precision on the bed of the Baltic Sea? How will this project reshape Europe’s transportation map and slash travel times between Hamburg and Copenhagen? Find out all the answers in today’s video! Watch until the end to learn how much this mega-project costs and when the grand opening is scheduled! #Fehmarnbelt #Megaprojects #Engineering #Construction #Europe #TechNews 👉 Enjoyed the video?
