The Brenner Base Tunnel, a 55-kilometer railway project under the Alps, has been completed by Austria, Italy, and the European Commission. The tunnel, which required an investment of between €10,000 and €11,000 million, aims to improve transport between Italy and central Europe. The project features two parallel railway tunnels connected by evacuation corridors. It will increase daily train traffic from 260 to over 650 and reduce the journey between Innsbruck and Fortezza from 80 to 25 minutes. Additionally, it aims to remove more than 1.2 million trucks from the routes per year. The project has faced delays of about 15 years and cost estimates range from €10,000 to €11,000 million, funded by the European Commission and the governments of Italy and Austria.
