That seems cheap at $5million USD per km. I think I've heard of roads and train tracks aline being more expensive.

- hansjorg 9y agoSurprisingly cheap. There's recently been a scandal unfolding in Norway where the parliament has been building a 250 meter long tunnel into its parking garage. Almost exactly 1/100th the length of the Lærdal Tunnel. So far this project has cost 2.3 billion NOK, or 1.3 billion more than the Lærdal Tunnel. That comes out to 1180 million USD per km. (To be fair, included in that price is also the renovation of a building external to the parliament).
- digi_owl 9y agoAnd yet the government fret like crazy over every KM of road being built (unless it is from Oslo to Kristiansand), to the point of using foreign companies with downright insane lack of safety protocols (liquid explosives stored right next to a propane heater!).
