Awesome Underwater Bridge - Bridge Between Sweden And Denmark

This bridge and tunnel goes under water to allow movement of ships. In order for ships to pass, this bridge is half under the water. You drive down in the water and then come out on the other side. Truly a marvelous piece of engineering! This bridge is between Sweden and Denmark. Picture taken from the side of Sweden.

This bridge is NOT the one that connects Hampton and Chesapeake in Virginia USA. It is very similar except the Virginian bridge breaks in 2 parts and North and southbound traffic bridges are split much wider apart.

That is the monitor merrimac memorial bridge tunnel in Va USA.I cross this tunnel everyday to go to work and it's awesome.After you cross it everyday it doesn't seem to freak you out as much.It took them about 8 years to complete it.

Monitor-Merrimac Memorial Bridge-Tunnel (MMBT) is the 4.6 mile-long (7.4 km) Hampton Roads crossing for Interstate 664. It is a four-lane bridge-tunnel composed of bridges, trestles, man-made islands, and tunnels under a portion of the Hampton Roads harbor where the James, Nansemond, and Elizabeth Rivers come together in the southeastern portion of Virginia in the United States.

Hate to break it to you guys. This tunnel is not in Sweden or Denmark. It is the Monitor-Merrimac tunnel in Virginia bridging Suffolk and Hampton/Newport New. I know I lived there for 13 years and used to cross this tunnel every time I went to work.

I live in Copenhagen and I can tell u for sure that this is not copenhagen. Our bridge has railroad tracks and the tunnel is 9 km long.In this picture u can see a port with two large ships on the left side, but there is no such thing near the bridge in Copenhagen, If someone knows where this bridge/tunnel is, please write because I'M VERY CURIOUS..

Thank you to tjayshaw who posted below a link to the correct info on this pic. it is NOT between Sweden and Denmark. It is the Monitor-Merrimac Memorial Bridge-Tunnel across the James River in Virginia, USA. Webmaster should correct the wrong info in the intro to the pic.
