RUSSIA UNVEILS PLAN FOR SUPERHIGHWAY THAT COULD CONNECT LONDON  TO NEW YORK

 

Russia has unveiled a plan that could connect London, England to New YorK, USA. It’s pretty ambitious and has been in the talks for about 10 years.

 

According to Russian news outlet the Siberian Times the head of the Russian Railways is asking for some serious consideration on this project – which has been dubbed the Trans-Eurasian Belt Development. It would be the first modern transportation way that would link up the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic, pretty impressive if you ask me.

 

The plans would see the construction of a new high-speed railway and the creation of a few major roads. The project would extend the length of Russia; connect with some existing roadways and cross the Bering Strait.

 

The proposed plan calls for about 20,000 KM of road and railway.

 

The route could lead the way for oil and gas as well as visitors – but I wouldn’t get my hopes up. We don’t have a full cost of the project yet but the projects say it could cost trillions to complete.

 

For now, I don’t think I will be driving to Russia
