(CNN) – Norway has the good fortune to build what was announced as the first baroque tunnel in the world, designed to help the navigators navigate the turbulent sea of Stadhavet.
Announced for the first time, one year ago by the Norwegian Coastal Administration, this 1.6 km long tunnel and 57 meters of anchorage will cover the mountain peninsula of Stadhavet in the northeast of Norway.
The construction of this marvel of engineering will cost around 2,800 million Norwegian crowns (330 million dollars), tomará between three and four years and will start in 2022.
“It’s a project that has been planned for decades. As it is very nice to finally start the construction work in a year », says CNN Travel the temporary manager of the project, Terje Andreassen, of the Norwegian Coster Administration.
At the moment, the boats that navigate the streets of Stadhavet are at risk of being hit by the strong winds and the bad weather.
“The cost of this peninsula is Norway’s most tormenting zone, with the hurricanes,” Andreassen doubled. “There are many more extraordinary currents here.”
In particular, barges tend to experience varying degrees in the closer search to improve meteorological conditions.
But inside the tunnel, the climate and the sea will not affect the transit.
Make sure that the routes in the boat are more safe and secure and can provide a high-speed ferry service, Andreassen suggests, and also encourage industrial and commercial activities in the area.
“There will be a better connection, it will be easier to travel”, double stone.

The Norwegian Coastal Administration reports that, although there are other tunnels that can accommodate small barges and barges, no other subterranean has been built to service large barges.
Stadhavet’s baroque tunnel will cover the outermost point of Stadhavet’s peninsula, which means that the project will be more factual, and in reality the tunnel will not be large.
The entrance to the tunnel will be controlled by a semaphore system.
The plan is that the excavation will be carried out on subterranean perforation platforms and pallet platforms. The construction of the tunnel will probably involve the elimination of some buildings and approximately three million cubic meters of rock.
The Norwegian Coastal Administration cobblestone that the terminated structure will be similar to “a large and wide mountain pass”.
Although it is probable that the tunnel will attract the attention of the infrastructure enthusiasts of all the world, the main objective of the tunnel is simply that the transit through the sea of Stadhavet is “safe” and “predictable”, as Andreassen says.
And in fact, it will not be possible to walk through the tunnel to the floor, because if you are intrigued by it, you will have the only option in the boat.
