The problem with those in Bris, and with the shit show that are South East QLD roads in general, is that they're no where near adequate for future growth. They spend 5 years adding one lane to the highway, which wasn't enough when they started, and won't be enough for the next few years until to dick around with it all again. Can't upgrade those tunnels with any sort of ease, and they're too small to carry the volume of traffic now. I mean two lanes each way??? You're kidding me right...

It's a pity that Simon's researchers didn't focus a little bit more on Japan. The 'Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line' is part bridge and part tunnel linking the cities of Kisarazu in Chiba with Kawasaki in Kanagawa. Then there is the second longest road tunnel in the world, the Yamate Tunnel which is 18km long and interweaves with the subway rail network of Tokyo and in some places the tunnels are less than 30cm apart. Simon mentioned that Japan is an archipelago and cited this as a reason for tunnels, but in actual fact, the only tunnel to link the major islands of Honshu, Kyushu, Shikoku and Hokkaido is the Seikan Tunnel (pronounced 'say-can'). Most of Japan's tunnels are due to topography. Specifically, steep mountainous terrain and also as building tunnels is often cheaper and easier than buying land in densely populated areas to create roads and railways.

Never thought I'd hear a Bainbridge Island name drop in the first 30 seconds of a video from a famous KZbinr. I grew up on the Rock (granted, almost nobody else calls it that) and for all it's faults it will always hold a special place in my heart. Simon & the Sideprojects team, thanks for bringing a smile to my face with that quick shoutout. Addendum: Awesome video, but I hope to God they never build a tunnel between Bainbridge and Seattle. Not that it's never been mentioned or that it wouldn't be cool to drive underneath the Puget Sound, but the amount of money it would cost is money that can be better spent on hundreds, if not thousands of more useful infrastructure projects.

And a crapton of money was already spent on the [SR]99 Tunnel that replaced the Viaduct--because of things needing to be structurally sound after so many earthquakes.

in the San Francisco Bay area there's a tunnel connecting San Francisco to Oakland ( only 3.6 miles /5.8 km, tiny and short compared to the things discussed in this video) what is a point of note it was constructed in sections that were floated out into the bay, and sunk. these submerged/sunken sections were then welded together , the retaining wall opened up and the water pumped out forming an underwater tube.

Oh cool! I'm from the Faroe Islands, but live in mainland Denmark now. I went through the recently opened Eysturoyartunnilin (the one with the roundabout) this summer when visiting family. :) Believe it or not, the tunnels are actually cheaper to build and maintain, than it's to build and maintain ships to transport cars and people between the islands. This is because the entire area is comprised of volcanic basalt, which is just the right hardness and consistency to build tunnels through. Like the Goldielocks material for tunnel building. This compared to the rough seas that require large ships that also frequently get damaged in storms, making maintance costs expensive. There are currently 3 undersea tunnels and they are working towards a total of 5. The 4th will open in 2023 and the 5th will open around 2030. The last picture, however, only showed Skúvoy island, which is only proposed (but not yet confirmed) to be a detour on the way to Suðuroy (the southern most island), so they get to connect two islands with one tunnel. This tunnel will be around 26 km long. The Faroe Islands have been building tunnels since the 1960's, and have a total of 22 tunnels, 19 of which are through mountains, and 3 under the sea. That's a lot of tunnels for a country of only 50k people, lol.
