Sakhalin–Hokkaidō Tunnel
From Underfoot
Q1888632
The Sakhalin–Hokkaido Tunnel is a proposed tunnel connection to link the Russian island of Sakhalin with the Japanese island of Hokkaido through the Russia-Japan border. Cost estimates by Russia in the year 2000 put the project at $50 billion and that would span across the Soya strait for 45-kilometre (28-mile). If built as a bridge, it would have been the longest bridge in the world at the time. The project remains at the proposal stage.
