North Cape Tunnel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The North Cape Tunnel (Nordkapptunnelen) is a subsea road tunnel under Magerøysundet from the mainland to Magerøya island. The tunnel was built between 1993 and 1999, is 6,875 metres long, and reaches a depth of 212 metres below the sea level. Before the tunnel was built, a ferry carried the traffic across the sound between Kåfjord and Honningsvåg.
The tunnel takes its name from North Cape at the very north of Magerøya island. North Cape Tunnel is part of European route E69.
