Femern A/S has announced a list of preferred contractors for the main tunnelling contracts in the Fehmarnbelt link project.
Femern A/S plans to enter into conditional contracts by mid-May 2016.
The 18-kilometre fixed link tunnel will connect the German island of Fehmarn with the Danish island of Lolland. The immersed tunnel will cut the current 45-minute ferry journey to just a seven-minute train trip.
Although Femern A/S plans to sign the contracts in May, construction will be on hold until the project is awarded a German construction permit.
The contracts will be valid until the end of 2019 but include an option to renegotiate after that point.
