Postimees in the context of Helsinki–Tallinn Tunnel

The Helsinki–Tallinn Tunnel (also known as FinEst or Talsinki tunnel) is a proposed undersea tunnel that would span the Gulf of Finland and connect the Finnish and Estonian capitals by train. The tunnel's length would depend on the route taken: the shortest distance across would have a submarine length of 80 kilometres (50 mi), which would make it 40% longer than the current longest railway tunnel in the world, the 57 km (40 mi)-long Gotthard Base Tunnel in Switzerland.

During the 2010s, it was estimated that the tunnel, if constructed, would cost €9–13 billion and could open in the 2030s if approved. In 2013, the European Union approved €3.1 million in funding for feasibility studies. A 2015 pre-feasibility study proposed trains traveling with a top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph). On 8 February 2024, Finnish Minister of Transport and Communications Lulu Ranne stated in an interview for Estonian newspaper Postimees that the tunnel is "unrealistic" and not on the government's agenda, with the project remaining on hold unless the European Union decides to allocate additional funding for it.
