Talk:Fehmarn Belt fixed link

Purpose
What is the purpose yet another link on top of the Store Baelt and Øresund bridges? Why on earth does dear little Denmark, which has one of the highest standards of living in the world and is one of the happiest places to live, wish to transform itself into a transit land on the level of Belgium? It should be abandoned and the perceived inconvenience lived with. T A Francis (talk) 16:26, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

Units
Why all the weird imperial units? This is a page about a project in Northern Europe where we use SI and the miles/feet add nothing but noise. The English wikipedia is not just for North American users; is the de facto international wikipedia and used by plenty of people who have not had their brains rotted by miles, feet, rods, furlongs, etc. Peter Lund/82.143.195.118 (talk) 13:25, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

It is in the wikipedia manual of style: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#Units_of_measurement Both SI and US imperial units shall normally be provided. Brolin (talk) 23:04, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Fixed link across elsewhere?
Can anyone add more info on the possible plans of contructing a tunnel and/or bridge across to the other side elswhere? I am quite curious as to whether any steps have been taken to decide to build infrastructure links across the:
 * Strait of Messina
 * Cook Strait
 * Palk Strait
 * Strait of Tartary
 * Irish Sea
 * Strait of Bonifacio
 * Surigao and San Bernardino Straits
 * Hainan Strait
 * Strait of Georgia
 * Kvarken
 * Chacao Channel bridge
 * Strait of Magellan
 * Bering Strait

Anyone with inside knowledge on any of these? I've posted similar requests elsewhere. Gruesome Twosome! 8v] //Big Adamsky 20:42, 15 December 2005 (UTC)


 * I will try to add something about the Fehmarn Belt bridge (using Google, a very good tool. I can read Danish and German), since I am interested in this subject.
 * Also, you can add Bering strait and Kvarken to the list, as there have been suggestions (not by any government) to build bridges there. BIL 21:15, 15 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Wonderful! I don't think there are any serious contemplations going on to link Russia with the United States up there, though. It would be uneconomical since so few people would use it and also technically extremely complicated given to climatic conditions. //Big Adamsky 21:21, 15 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Yes, but that haven't prevented magazines to write detailed articles and tv stations (e.g. Discovery) to have programs about it. In reality, today there is no ferry across it and not even any road even in Alaska. Across Kvarken, at least there is a ferry, although few have taken that proposal seriously. BIL 21:35, 15 December 2005 (UTC)


 * As far as I know, there are no serious plans in place to tunnel or bridge across Georgia Strait. There's occasional talk about a bridge, of course, but nothing more. It would happen over BC Ferries' dead body... heqs 15:50, 19 May 2006 (UTC)


 * A connection of this size which is actually planned by the government to be built within 10-15 years of time is the tunnel under the Boknafjord, Norway. That tunnel would be about 24 km long and 350 m deep, and the longest underwater road tunnel in the world. BIL 21:49, 19 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Add the Helsinki to Tallinn Tunnel, Finland-Estonia, about 70 km to this daydream list. --BIL (talk) 08:25, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

Move and name change
Should this article be moved to Fehmarn Belt Fixed Link as the Great belt Bridge article is named Great Belt Fixed Link? or is the suffix Fixed Link only used when the connection is a combination of a bridge and a tunnel? The article gives names in Danish and German as Fehmarn Belt Connection and not Bridge Angelbo Talk / Contribs 15:34, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Motorcentrism
Why does the article have two (2) different maps of the regional highway networks, but not a map of the railroad networks? I want to know where I can go, not where other people can drive their cars. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.170.136.173 (talk) 17:30, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

How to modify the 'location' in the infobar?
The 'location' map at the bottom of the infobar seems to be rather overly zoomed in. As is, it simply shows a buch of water and small pieces of land on both sides, which doesn't really add much when you already know or shortly find out that it is an undersea tunnel. Does anyone know if, and if so how, one can zoom out this map? David12345 (talk) 07:36, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
