The proposal is being given very serious consideration. Thousands of people per day cross from Estonia to Finland, and an underwater train tunnel (longer than the Chunnel) would reduce the crossing to 30 minutes.

Have you read some of the disaster reports for high speed RoRo ferries in the Baltic? Including the rapes and robberies during disasters? Would you feel comfortable with the engineering firms that had no camera coverage of front ramps or hatch hinges?
