World’s longest road tunnel


With its 24.5 km, Laerdal Tunnel in Norway is the longest road tunnel in the world. It was built on modern standards and, unlike other tunnels, where drivers make just a few minutes or hours in darkness, Laerdal is divided into four parts, among them are open and vast expanses.


Lights do not just enough to see where you drive, and mimics the sun at sunset. The best thing about tunnels is that to go on it should not pay any fees. Work begun in 1995 and the tunnel was officially opened in 2000. The construction cost cost 1,082 million Norwegian krone (€ 240, 000).
