没想到大马的精明隧道(SMART TUNNEL)竟让全球留下深刻印象,被著名的美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)评选为全球十大最佳隧道!

这条建于2007年的精明隧道,全长9.7公里,是东南亚最长及亚洲第二长的隧道。主要用途是舒缓吉隆坡市区交通拥堵以及在大雨天时排水,防止发生淹水的潜在问题。

 

除了吉隆坡隧道,其他被提及的国家隧道包括瑞士的圣哥达基础隧道、英吉利海峡隧道、挪威洛达尔隧道、日本东京湾跨海公路和美国的艾森豪威尔隧道。

CNN网站也提到,我国的Smart Tunnel 有效避免洪灾和交通阻塞,为我国省下了数十亿美元的开支。

这条隧道也是世界首创的工程计划,它是自2003年初动工,整个工程耗资19亿3300万令吉,政府拨款13亿1200万令吉,其余6亿多令吉由建筑商金务大和马矿业承担。
