Zurich is building a bike tunnel!

Nice video! If I recall correctly, the tunnel is officially temporary as the accepted law has a provision to use it as a highway in the future if the project is revived. I see basically no chance of this happening but at the same time, the highway is still listed in the long term projects list of the transportation office so some people will for sure lobby for it.

Yes! This is what I find most crazy about this tunnel. According to [1], the tunnel can be used as a bike tunnel until 2041, where then it will be decided if the bike tunnel contract can be extended. Judging by the way current urban planning trends are going, I'd also find it very hard to envision this being closed down.
