挪威正面臨一項開創性的工程挑戰——耗資20億美元的羅格法斯特隧道——它將成為世界上最長、最深的海底公路隧道。這項龐大的工程全長約27公里(17英里),深度達海平面以下392公尺(1286英尺),是挪威計畫沿西海岸打造一條無渡輪E39公路的核心部分。 羅格法斯特隧道旨在縮短旅行時間,改善斯塔萬格和卑爾根等主要城市之間的連通性,它將取代目前拖慢E39路線速度的多個渡輪通道。這些渡輪通道經常因天氣原因而延誤,導致行程漫長且難以預測。一旦完工,隧道將徹底取消這些路段,將原本約21小時的行程縮短近一半,並為居民和企業提供更快捷、更可靠的交通連接。 羅格法斯特隧道預計將於 2033 年左右完工,它體現了挪威對基礎設施的大膽願景,突破了工程極限,同時改變了其沿海交通網絡。
Norway is taking on a groundbreaking engineering challenge with the \$2 billion Rogfast tunnel—set to become the world’s longest and deepest subsea road tunnel. Stretching about 27 kilometers (17 miles) and plunging 392 meters (1,286 feet) below sea level, this massive project is a central part of the country’s plan to create a ferry-free E39 highway along its west coast.
Designed to slash travel times and improve connectivity between major cities such as Stavanger and Bergen, the Rogfast tunnel will replace multiple ferry crossings that currently slow the E39 route. These crossings, often delayed by weather, make the journey long and unpredictable. Once complete, the tunnel will eliminate those segments entirely—cutting the roughly 21-hour trip by nearly half and providing a faster, more dependable link for both residents and businesses.
Expected to be finished around 2033, the Rogfast tunnel reflects Norway’s bold vision for infrastructure, pushing engineering limits while transforming its coastal transportation network.
