  • Stad Ships Tunnel
    2 01 9 S T H T E A W O D R S L D H ’ S I F P I R S S T T T U U N N N E N L F E O R L S H I P S 1 I l l u s t r a s j o n: K y s tve r k e t/S nøhe tt a The Stad Ship Tunnel is an investment in Norway’s future livelihood, which is heavily dependent on the Norwegian coastline and the surrounding ocean. Business forecasts show that the Norwegian seafood industry has the potential for rapid growth in the next few years. The Norwegian marine sector is a world leader in sustainable transport by sea, our future highway. The Stad Ship Tunnel will help ensure that this highway is safer, more cost-efficient and environmentally friendly. The political goal is to shift transport from our roads to the sea—in order to reach this political goal and accommodate the potential growth in the seafood industry, it is necessary for the Stad Ship Tunnel to become a reality. The Stad Ship Tunnel will create a closer connection between Western Norway and the coast. It will also facilitate the development of an entirely new region with new residential projects and improved job markets extending from Ålesund through seafood-based communities in South Sunnmøre, to the prosperous cities of Måløy and Florø. The plans to build the world’s first ship tunnel have received considerable international attention. Since it will be the first tunnel of its kind, it has the potential to become a tourist attraction for visitors from across the globe.
