Stad Ship Tunnel

Stad Municipality, Norway

The Stad Ship Tunnel (Norwegian: Stad skipstunnel) is a planned canal and tunnel to bypass the Stad peninsula in Stad Municipality in Vestland county, Norway. The peninsula is one of the most exposed areas on the coast, without any outlying islands to protect it from the weather. The section has traditionally been one of the most dangerous along the coast of Norway. When completed it will be the first full-size ship tunnel in the world. Construction is currently planned to begin in early 2027. AF Group was awarded the turnkey contract.
