Finland's Plans for a Tunnel to Estonia

Finland and Estonia are planning to construct a 15 billion dollar tunnel across the Gulf of Finland, connecting the capital cities of Helsinki and Tallinn. A Helsinki-Tallinn tunnel would transform the economies of the region, creating a twin city metropolitan area and improving connectivity between Finland and the rest of Europe. Two sides are working for its development: the government controlled FinEst Initiative and FinEst Bay Area Development, a private company led by Finnish entrepreneur Peter Vesterbacka.
