Elbe Crossing

The Elbe crossing is a planned fixed transport link across the lower Elbe between Hamburg and the North Sea. The crossing is expected to enable the westward extension of the coastal Bundesautobahn 20 to join Bundesautobahn 26 and on to Bremerhaven and the Weser tunnel. The link is planned to cross the Elbe between Glückstadt in Schleswig-Holstein and Drochtersen in Lower Saxony, to form part of the North West Bypass of Hamburg and improve the road connections along the Amsterdam–Copenhagen transport corridor. This is a joint project of the states of Lower Saxony and Schleswig-Holstein. The crossing is proposed to be a 6.5-kilometer (4.0 mi) tunnel under the Elbe, and is expected to cost about 1.3 billion euros. If the tunnel is built, it would be the second longest road tunnel in Germany.
