Rail link through new Denmark-Germany tunnel delayed by several years'

Delays in building a rail link between the Fehmarn Belt tunnel and the German railway could set the project back several years, according to new reports. The Eisenbahn-Bundesamt has indicated it will take Deutsche Bahn six and a half years to complete a vital 2.2-kilometre railway tunnel linking the island of Fehmarn to mainland Germany. As the construction of this additional tunnel has yet to receive final approval, the trains are unlikely to begin operating before the end of 2032 at the earliest.
