Re: Re: where is the tunnel

This is no mickey mouse tunnel , it is considerable larger than say the big dig in boston.

Surely this isn’t the case. :confused: They relocated an entire motorway network from overground to underground with the Big Dig in Boston. Bearing in mind that they had to work around/beneath a metro system, an ancient sewage network, and that they penetrated the river / sea flood defence system in the process.

Without having any figures to hand, the Port Tunnel from my understanding, can’t be anywhere vaguely close to that scale of infrastructural project. Not in terms of disruption to a city or locality (the Big Dig was, for the most part, quite successful at keeping this to a minimum) Nor in terms of cost.???
