“At present a car journey between Denmark and Germany involves an hour long ferry crossing of the Fehmarnbelt or a 160km detour via the 7km Storebælt bridge which links the Danish islands of Zealand and Funen before heading down into Germany via Jutland. When the Fehmarnbelt Fixed Link is open, journey times will be slashed by at least two hours, with drivers able to cross the strait in 10 minutes. Trains travelling at 200km/h will be able to make the journey in seven minutes”

An absolutely fascinating project that it was great to learn and write about. Hope I can travel through it one day! Get the scoop over on New Civil Engineer
