After almost 2 years of extensive study of conceptual designs, the plans for the "missing" transportation link across the Fehmarnbelt from Denmark to Germany are ready to proceed. The present-day ferry takes 45 minutes plus waiting time. The link will take 7 to 10 minutes.

A newly developed environmental feedback monitoring system allows a much quicker evaluation of impacts, which in turn enables dredgers to respond more quickly.

To build the 16 km long bridge-tunnel link from Denmark to Sweden requires the dredging of extremely hard layers of limestone, often in extreme weather conditions, with strictly controlled spillage limitations.
