Construction of the Fehmarnbelt Fixed Link will take eight and a half years. Here is an overview of the various phases of construction.
Experience the construction project at close hand
Visit our exhibition centre in Rødbyhavn and Burg and come close to the construction of the world’s longest immersed tunnel
We’re building alongside nature
As an addition to the interactive map of the construction sites on both the Danish and German sides, we have now made it possible to get an overview of all the new natural areas that appear around the connection.
Why we're building the Fehmarnbelt tunnel
Denmark’s largest infrastructure project
The Fehmarnbelt tunnel will remove a bottleneck, reduce travel time and strengthen links between Scandinavia and Central Europe.
Time-saving
When the Fehmarnbelt tunnel is completed, the journey between Rødbyhavn and Puttgarden will take 7 minutes by train and 10 minutes by car.
A green shortcut to Europe
The Fehmarnbelt Fixed Link is part of a greener traffic corridor in Europe and will boost the transport of freight by electric trains.

Drone flight over the German and Danish tunnel construction site
In perfect weather conditions, Dane Grace, one of the world's most talented drone pilots, flew his drone over the German and Danish construction sites for the Fehmarnbelt tunnel. On his first visit to the construction site, he was able to film the construction of the tunnel element factory on Lolland. Now he was back on site. His spectacular footage shows the progress of work on the tunnel portals in Germany and Denmark, as well as the production of tunnel elements in the large factory in Rødbyhavn.
