The 1km tunnel in Lubeck, northern Germany, cost around €78.5 million and is one of Germany’s first toll roads. It is part of the 2.1km toll road that runs under the Trave River. The tunnel replaced a bascule bridge over the Trave River which was not fully functional at the time.
A statement by Hoctief in 2005 said that the total investment was €176 million, of which the German federal government contributed €90 million - the same for construction and maintenance of a new bridge.
