Chilling reading!Also described in detail, with key links, are tunnels under design in the Czech Republic, France, Norway (14), South Korea (3), Spain and UK; awards in Belgium and Germany; and about ten calls for tenders, two of which for renovation in France. Required reading!The Norwegian tunnels are part of the proposed E18 motorway. Thirteen of them are twin-tube drill/blast at 9.5 m-wide, with a mined length of 20 km. The engineer's estimate for excavation and support is €9,850/m, which probably sets a new benchmark for the Norwegian Tunnelling system!
