The longest and deepest tunnel in the world |
World's longest and deepest rail tunnel opens in Switzerland
The world's longest and deepest rail tunnel has officially opened in Switzerland, after almost two decades of
construction work. The 57km twin-bore Gotthard base tunnel will provide a high-speed rail link under the Swiss
Alps between northern and southern Europe. Goods currently carried on the route by a million lorries a year
will go by train instead. The tunnel has overtaken Japan's 53.9km Seikan rail tunnel as the longest in the world
and pushed the 50.5km Channel Tunnel linking the UK and France into third place.
