The incredible £535m tunnel network that has completely transformed these tiny islands


The tunnels, which opened on December 19 2020 include a unique feature: the world’s first undersea roundabout, found underneath the Skálafjørður fjord.

The tunnel itself is 6.98 miles, making it one of the longest underwater road tunnels on the planet.

This project has been a long time coming, though. The process took four years to complete, but now the Faroe Islands boast more than 31 miles of road tunnels for just 53,000 people.
