underwater railway tunnel
by om shanti on Mar 13, 2011 10:46 PM


GUANGZHOU - Construction of China's first underwater railway tunnel was completed Saturday in south China, which allows trains to operate at the world's top speed under the water.

The project, or the Shiziyang Tunnel, crossed the Pearl River estuary in South China's Guangdong province with a length of 10.8 kilometers. It is designed for trains travelling at 350 kilometers per hour, the highest of all underwater tunnels worldwide.

The 10.8-kilometer tunnel, which is also the country's longest, is a key part of a 140-kilometer high-speed rail link that connects Guangzhou, the capital of China's southern economic powerhouse Guangdong, with the city of Shenzhen, also in Guangdong, and Hong Kong.

Liu Guangjun, project manager with the Shiziyang Tunnel, said large shielding machines had been used in digging of the tunnel at 60 meters underwater.

Construction of the tunnel started in November 2007, and the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong express rail link is scheduled to put into operation in 2012, which would slash travel time between Guangzhou and Hong Kong to 40 minutes from the current two hours.

The express is also expected to join with the country's express railway network and take passengers only eight hours from Hong Kong to Beijing.

Lavasa is India's Future
by iota on Mar 13, 2011 09:35 PM

It is one the best towns laid out in India ever.
Thousands of people are employed there.

In India it is very fashionable to criticize development. The toothpaste you used to brush your dirty teeth, was manufactured by a MNC.

If Corruption is not acceptable - THEN ALLOW - people to do development WITHOUT CORRUPTION. You close all gates, and then demand bribe to open them.

Lavasa is Environmental Disaster in the making

The project is another humongous money spinner for the super rich and wannabe rich people of this country. It was facilitated by the corrupt bandicoots of Indian politics, including the corruption-king Sharad Pawar. More importantly, it will completely destroy some of the best natural rain forests, lakes, mountains, and the entire eco-system in the western ghats between Mumbai and Pune. Only in India, this kind of development can happen! All educated enlightened people must rally to stop this project IMMEDIATELY!
