Fjarðarheiðargöng Explained

65.26°N -14.226°WFjarðarheiðargöng, also known as Seyðisfjarðargöng, is a planned road tunnel along route 93 in eastern Iceland. The tunnel would replace a 600m high pass between Seyðisfjörður and Egilsstaðir. Construction is scheduled to begin in 2025 with an expected construction time of about 7 years.[1] The reason for construction is that the pass is often hit by snow storms making it impassable, and that the only car ferry reaching Iceland calls at Seyðisfjörður.
