Tunnels often form part of sustainability programs such as hydroelectric power systems, or the construction of metros for mass urban transportation. It's important, therefore, that Ramboll leads the way in defining the concept of sustainable tunnelling. Calculating the carbon footprint of major projects such as the Fehmarnbelt and Nordhavnsvej allows all those involved to see what impact the work will have on the surrounding environment.

Fehmarn: The world's longest road/rail tunnel
In the future Scandinavia and the rest of Europe will be connected by the world's longest road and rail tunnel.

Nordhavnsvej – the largest road construction project in Copenhagen in 50 years
The project for “Nordhavnsvej” is the first stage of a new road to Copenhagen’s Nordhavn (North Harbour). Nordhavn is an old industrial and port area, planned to be developed into a new urban area in the north-eastern part of Copenhagen. When fully developed, the urban area is planned for 40,000 residents and 40,000 workplaces.
