Norway's Secret Megaproject: World's Deepest Undersea Tunnel Rogfast Under Construction
- •Norway is secretly constructing Rogfast, a massive 27 km undersea road tunnel, deep beneath the North Sea.
- •The tunnel will be part of the E39 coastal highway, connecting Randaberg and Bokn, eliminating multiple ferry crossings.
- •Rogfast will descend to nearly 400 meters below sea level, making it the deepest undersea road tunnel globally.
- •The project aims to significantly reduce travel time and dependence on weather-sensitive ferry services along Norway's western coast.
- •Engineers are excavating simultaneously from both ends, a complex technological feat expected to take a long time to complete.
Why It Matters: Norway is building Rogfast, the world's deepest undersea road tunnel, to revolutionize coastal travel.
