Amazing stuff, good on them.

We would struggle to agree on building a tunnel under the Auckland Harbour.

Did you see the $17 each way toll and that is with a yearly subscription?

They do look incredible but we have absolutely no need for something like that in NZ

We absolutely need tunnels. 

This 11km Danish tunnel cost $166 million USD. Going under water too, which might have more complex considerations. 

I saw an estimate to build an 8km road tunnel under the Kaimais would cost $1.4 billion USD (the existing kaimai rail tunnel cost $43 million to build in 1978). 

The issue for NZ,  is why it costs so much more to build tunnels here than anywhere else!

I disagree. 

We need these everywhere! 

Roundabouts, traffic lights, housing and businesses - a whole underground society of light-hating vampires. 

Awesome

And? If someone built that tunnel to the south island and the toll was a mere $17, it would be cheap at twice the price.
