Kadar Krass Millenium Goldecia Rail Link Tunnel to open in 1600
[Image: 1_chan_aeriel3.jpg]

The Kadar Krass Millenium Goldecia Rail Link tunnel was announced to be on track by the Goldecia-Kolhar Link Corporation that is 50% owned by Goldecia and 50% owned by Kolhar. The tunnel has been fully completed with tracks and the terminals to be totally completed by Septem 1600. The tunnel is also expected to come in under its budget of $80 billion or 55.94 billion Goldecian Pounds. The tunnel is to link Goldecia and Kolhar with an environmentally friendly and conveniant weatherproof link for the first time in the history of Goldecia with air travel and ferry travel expected to face huge falls in passenger numbers once the tunnel opens. The project was started 6 years ago after a 4 year planning phase. The link runs 220 miles from Poolville in Goldecia to Taliat in Kolhar with those cities and towns expected to boom as a result.

The tunnel consists of 4 main tunnels and 2 emergency tunnels and also has an internet cable link as well as an energy link. 2 tunnels are dedicated to the new higher speed link which will have international passenger trains running through it from Cair Para to Vakor via Brummagem and Arthuria or Goudadam and Porterdam with international terminals built in those cities in stations. The other 2 tunnels will be dedicated to freight rail and the new Kadar Shuttlelink which will run the 220 mile route in 1.5 hours down from the current 5.5-7 hours ferry link. The services are expected to become the main ways of crossing from Goldecia to Kolhar especially for vehicle crossings.

The rates for the tunnel have been announced on a provisional basis with rates expected to be slightly less than the ferry pricing for the route because of the lack of a need for cabin and extensive lounges on board for the Shuttlelink. Bikes are expected to face a $193.50 return fare if booked in advance. Cars are to be charged $300-345 return, Coaches $901 return, Motorhomes $435 return and Trucks $1,050 Return. Corporate customers will be charged significantly less . The tunnel is expected to take at least a 60% marketshare of the Goldecia to Kolhar travel market for ground transport. The tunnel is expected to be opened by delegations at both ends with King Edmund opening it at the Goldecian end and Kadar Krass-Parakimete expected to open the tunnel at the Kolhari end. The tunnel is expected to result in a significant drop in carbon emissions for both Goldecia and Kolhar.
