Norway is building a $47 billion dollar highway along its western coast, which will include floating bridges and underwater tunnels stretching across the region’s immense fjords. Norway’s western coast, which hosts several key cities, is currently connected by the E39 highway. However, it is split apart by seven major fjords, which increase travel time and costs. To solve this inefficiency, Norway is building a brand new, continuous highway across the fjords. It will include floating bridges and submerged tunnels, serving as a feat of engineering. The project is planned to be finished by 2050 and will be paid by toll revenue. Once complete, it will dramatically improve connectivity in Norway, boosting the economy and tourism.
