RSSA new tunnel is being proposed in the Netherlands between The Hague and Delft. The link would run under the existing Prinses Beatrixlaan route. The aim of the tunnel project is to reduce congestion as well as noise pollution as traffic volumes in the area are expected to grow by 30% or more by 2020. The tunnel would provide a link to The Hague, with the existing surface routes then being used for local traffic. The tunnel is expected to cost €190 million to build and a decision on whether to proceed with the project is expected shortly.
