[edit] Fixed link across?

Can anyone add more info on the possible plans of contructing a tunnel and/or bridge across to the other side? Is it too stormy to be feasible? I am also quite curious as to whether any steps have been taken to decide to build infrastructure links across the:

• Strait of Messina
• Fehmarn Belt
• Palk Strait
• Strait of Tartary
• Irish Sea
• Strait of Bonifacio
• Surigao and San Bernardino Straits
• Hainan Strait
• Strait of Georgia
• Kvarken
• Chacao Channel bridge
• Strait of Magellan
• Bering Strait

Anyone with inside knowledge on any of these? I've posted similar requests elsewhere. Gruesome Twosome! 8v] //Big Adamsky 20:43, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

No serious plans that I'm aware of. There is a power cable though, linking the North and South Islands. 03:57, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, There is no plans that are serious that I know of, The only plan the I know of is a few hundred water turbines that would lie on the seabed and generate electricity for the country.
