I like how nearly all European Megaprojekts are Energy or Transport related and actually usefull and not just show offs.
Your comment having "nearly" in it is very apt, considering the Istanbul Canal one is a huge money laundering scheme and has received city wide protests which the government does not care one bit about. An enormous number of people will lose their homes, their lands, and will be paid peanuts for it, if they even are paid anything.
I don't think governments can spend that amount of money with show off things
@@asdfg27471just look at saudi arabia🤣
It is spelled "project". With a "c".
@@WREFMAN With a broken language like english who gives a fuck. Write projekt with a K.
Would love to see this complication for every continent
Bruh
I want to see top 10 megaprojects in Antarctica
The uks problems are by far political issues
Were you trying to say compilation?
@@ArconicTower lol
Notice how all of these projects are infrastructure projects that will result in economic growth. not some dead futuristic supercities in the middle of the desert
Rent free 🤣
You nailed it hehehe
I'm supporting Denmark's plan
🇬🇧🤜🤛🇩🇰
🇩🇰🤜🤛🇬🇧
🇩🇰 🤌🤌
I absolutely love this type of content. And your videos are really really good
Thank you 🙏 This means a lot to us and motivates us to keep going ☺️
@@MegaBuildsYT I strongly appreciate your efforts to properly pronounce place names!
I hate these old school top 10 rankings but with the graphics and so on you managed to really captivate and entertain me, so yeah can't wait to see other continents.
North America… we’re gettin’ a boat…
You had me at "completed on time and under budget" (the London-Paris tunnel). I didn't know that's possible
No waaaai
It wasn’t really completed under budget.
@@uritoypgldkr1449 it never is
And if it is... that's sucked back into a pork barrel
The rare cases people have benefited from government cashbacks and such... is met with such frustration the headache isnt worth it
I think that statement is not “factual” 😂
I live in Chicago land area. Is that even POSSIBLE?
The Fehmarn Tunnel will be great.
Last year i took the Bus from Berlin to Oslo. Took me almost a day.
The Time will be reduced immense.
Espacially Hamburg - Copenhagen.
Also cool part the already existing øresundbridge. You can quickly get to Malmö aswell.
Cargo from Sweden and Norway can get way faster into Germany cause they don't have to drive through whole Denmark.
the residents on fehrmarn arent too fond of it tho. i was on vacation there in 2014 and fell in love with the tranquility, was a small paradise to ease your mind, cut off from the outer world. with the completion of that tunnel there will be lots of traffic and constant noise pollution. lets hope it wont be too bad
@@Lance3015rural people will be made at literally anything.
Hello, another worthy megaproject is ITER, which is the first nuclear fusion reactor. It is estimated to cost around 20 billion. It is being build in France, although now that I think about it, the project is internationally funded.
Its not the first fusion reactor.
@@Weisior "Research into fusion reactors began in the 1940s, but as of 2023, no device has reached net power." - To my knowledge there are only just prototypes and inefficient attempts.
@@daniellukov You stated it will be the first fusion reactor, not the first reactor achieving net energy.
ITER is pretty mega too. And it costs over 50 B. $ right now. (I know its internationally backed, but constructed in Europe)
well Istanbul canal would not let the US warships to Black Sea because with the montreux convention Dardenelles has also been restricted for any warships to cross into Marmara Sea. It may be overlooked so did wanna clear things out. Thanks
I’ve lived in the rocky coasts of Norway my entire life and never knew about the Stad Ship Tunnel 😨
How? Its been on the news for literally years.
i live up north in Norway, and ive heard quite a bit about it and the E39 tunnels/bridges.
Meanwhile up in Narvik theres a shit ton of debate about Narviktunnelen, which will cost about $90M USD.
@@JoriDiculous Not big enough apparently
This Norwegian ship tunnel seems to be not very expensive in comparison to its size. This is probably a very stable rock, that needs no concrete in construction. But impressive nonetheless.
can confirm most tunnels dont have any thing over it its just rockts but there are some soft areas that is reanforces or goes under oceans or lakes and people belive the project will be like 2/3 times more expensiv than what is expected
@@Vikeroni This is something completely new in technology. So it is difficult to predict and calculate. Large projects like this also do not get the funding if the full amount is at play. This is a trick of the politicians that never gets old. So after it has started you can get the rest of the cost through the budgets, scattered over several years if possible.
@@adamabele785barely anything is new technology and politicians have nothing to do with this project it’s all the road department
We travel from Belgium to Italy by car... so yeah, the TETN would be great for us.
Our drive is usually 11-12 hours long. But now we have a rent a car once we're there. The tickets better be cheap :)
no they wont be cheap :)
Always worth watching a Top Luxury video.
I think Stuttgart 21 should be on this list since it costs about 10 billion dollars
edit: or is this considered part of the European transport network?
€10 bln , for a station with 70 mln passengers a years ? That is almost a bargain 😬
LAX airport gets a 'refurbishment' and improvement program ... It was initially set at $15 bln , but the current day figure goes about $30 bln , !!! 😂😧 And JFK airports program rose to $ 19 bln ..
That puts CaHSR high speed rail( 'nah, no good , too expensive' 🐘 ) and Berlin Brandenburg Airport in a different light. ...
@lws7394 its also not just the station but multiple km of underground railways, a new station at the airport and a section of highspeedrail
Stuttgart 21 is part of Ten-T, specifically the Paris - Bratislava/Budapest corridor
In the UK, we don’t really hear much about some of the projects they’re building but I am really excited for these however it may seem good in theory but may turn out disastrous. I have learned new things today. I never knew about the new nuclear power station we’re building nor the extension of the wind farms. There is a lot of controversy surrounding HS2 however I’m excited to see how it turns out.
Thank you for this video though! It was quite educational as I’m interested in big new “revolutionary” projects.
Coz' in UK you guys are brain washed 😂😂😂
Think of all the other, better, ways it could be spent. Instead of all that money going to slightly reducing travel times from London to the midlands (as we in the north consider Leeds to be).
@@occamraiser What kinds of other, better ways you see all that money benefitting Britain?
@@occamraiser It's as much about increasing capacity, than it was ever about speed. But the cost overruns and delays are madness, it feels like every project the govt gets into runs way over :(
The thing about high speed trains is they cost a lot and take forget to build, so people complain.
But every time they finish those some people go “think god we build that”.
Impressive how cheap the norway ship tunnel was
That's an estimation, of course. Most big construction projects go over budget.
In my fictional world, all projects in this video already finished and successful
I just love this channel! so many cool projects I never knew about right in one spot!
Thank you very much for your support! 😊 This means a lot to us!
Windpower parks are huge mega projects defienitely here in Northen Europe what is amazing because green energy is the future. 🌬
Windpower is not as good as you may think
@@ebgames5125 is it water or solar power better, we have solar panels in our home
Yes, also the single wind turbines are much taller than they look (190m each)
European way e39 looks so interesting, its amazing there is ways underwater. Ill visiting on Lapland and Norway in this summer so Ill say my father who driving car "would we try that underwater way" 😮
@@ebgames5125its not about what is better you just do all of them simultanious
You are such a great UA-camr and I love it ❤
Thank you so much! 🙏
@@MegaBuildsYT I am amazed! How do you find so much information! Good job :D
I like the graph bars.....good visuals to understand the difference in amount of money
Another awesome video!
i love the reporting skills of the presenter😊😊and such insightful content,,,can make someone buy a ticket just to see this megastructures
I don't understand how the budget for HS2 can be so high. In my country, Spain, with half of that budget, we have built the entire current network, about 4000 km in length, and our country is crossed by many mountain ranges over 2000 meters, compared to how flat England is.
Mano de obra es más cara que en España. Al final, lo más caro de un proyecto es la mano de obra.
@@harveybince sí, pero aún así... Yo creo que tb afecta la densidad de población que es cuatro veces más, y que tienen desarrollos urbanos mucho más amplios, todo casas, con lo que el precio de acomodar una obra nueva, con expropiaciones, se dispara...
@@harveybince Nope, geography and organisation quality are the two major factors
UK is heavily urbanized, many tunnels and viaducts are also needed while Spanish HS rail rolls a lot on flat terrain. Also Spain is very good at doing engineering projects on the cheap wile English ones are ridden with cost disease
Land Value price, compulsory purchase alongside environmental and historical campaigns legal challenges has drastically increased prices. It doesn't help our idiot PM has decided to scrap the Birmingham to Manchester section of HS2 just as the London to Birmingham section makes significant progress
all of them excited to see..
Such an incredible projects, thank you @Top_Luxury for sharing it with us!
Do Asia
I loved this video! Keep up the good work!!!!!
Thank you so much! :)
@@MegaBuildsYT np
Do the same list for each continent, please?
Yes we will do it for different countries and continents
I love your content, Ponte di Messina too is an interesting project
Great video!
You forgot the project we Europeans have been carrying for a loooong time and cannot be priced: To convince Americans that meters are useful
That's been a success for a long time, in the US everything important or complicated is done in metric. It's just that the American authorities haven't gotten around to letting the general public know. They seem to think that people would react badly if they knew.
First Montenegrin highway being one of the most costly highways per km built in the world with stage 1 totaling 1.3 Billion $
it is interesting too see how this megaprojects have been financed and will affect the world it is so cool too see i love it keep it up work!1!
nobody tops europe when it comes to infrastructure
That's beautiful
As a Dane I'm not a fan of the Energy Island. I think it would be easy to sabotage just like the natural gasline close to Bornholm. The money could be used better in my opinion. But It sounds cool whit Energy islands :D
Imagine taking over a windfarm
Like WE ARE TAKING OVER BY STORM
Energy Island of Denmark am I the most excided to see. I want to be a Part of Denmark :) Ty for the video
Awesome!
Superb content
You had forgotten about Carpathian tunnel in Slovakia. It will be one of the longest tunnels in Europe and will costs around 1 billion dollars.
The best thing about this project is that it is completely imaginary.
@@tomaspampuchrepel8851 It's not! The construction on it going to start soon
lol,there is not motorway between two big towns,and it is only 400km
@@tch1978 But there will be soon
What a luck its an underground tunnel. 😁
well this video was interesting to watch. thx for sharing
You forgot about the Oosterweeld connection in Antwerp (Belgium), which costs more than 7.6 billion dollars
Good to go
excellent video and great channel, thank you. Wondering what software you are using to create all those cool charts and animations. Could you please guide me in a right direction.
Its just amazing to see, what we can all do as Mankind!
I see you have one of those days you believe in the humanity.
I love this format definitely one of my favorite videos, please do one on the middle east.
That is a great idea, thank you 🙏
@@MegaBuildsYT Wow I never thought I would get a responds Iv loved your channel for the longest time and watch your video as soon as I get the time #1 UA-camr!❤❤❤
Thanks for your videos.
Your speech speed is perfect and we can have the best subtitles from ytube in our language.
Apriciate 👌✔️
The Stad Tunnel is said to take 4 years to complete, and will open in 2025. They only just started with this thing and I must say, this is the first I have heard of this and hope they manage it....if they do, then I am pretty sure other countries will do the same too, since the Irish sea is and can be quite deadly.
I highly doubt such tunnel will be made in Irish sea. Where do they wanna make it? Trough Ireland itself? I don't even need to tell you why thats stupid. Trough small part of UK to make at least little part of the sea safe? Too costly and too little reward.
Off course we manage to build it. It's what we do here in Norway.
It is however still discussed how beneficial it actually is compared to the cost and work etc. That is why it is still not even started and IF it starts it will not happen before earliest 2024/2025... But we will see...
He says in the vid that it would reduce travel time by up to 2hours....
That must be an error, ain't it?
@@OompaL0ompa Depends on the weather and speed etc. In one example I read 48min so I don't know what they conclude. Don't think they can even agree on that🤷♂️ We will see if they start in 2025 building this or not.
This project is quite unique to the Norwegian landscape, I can't see it happening anywhere else.
Genial! Que bueno!
WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW
Can't wait for those energy project to be finished. I could use some cheap energy.
Denmark is just building Bridges and tunnels left and right. The great belt bridge, the Oresundsbridge, and now the Fehmarn Tunnel
❤ I like it 🔥🔥🔥
it sounds good on paper, but actually doing it is a different matter. Those boat tunnels could come in handy if done right.
Hi Keep up the content!
Thank you! What kind of videos do you enjoy the most? 😌
@@MegaBuildsYT Megaprojects of course 😃😁😄
@@MegaBuildsYTmy favourite will probably be the projects/mega-projects that went wrong. And then top 10 mega projects
i wanna see the fire suppression system of the Stad Tunnel..
9:11 I see my city! Stavanger :)
Nice
Why is the currency in Dollars and not Euros?
Excelente
You forgot to mention Poland's future central communication port. And more important than connecting Germany to Denmark or Italy to France, an important part of the TEN-T project (especially given the geopolitical concept) is Rail Baltica and Via Baltica, which will connect Finland with the Baltics and Poland, and also the Via Carpatia project that will connect Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, Poland and Lithuania.
You forgot about Messina s strait bridge in southern Italy
El contenido muy bueno !
3:41 Made a bop sound when he said Europe 🤣
The tunnel for boat is intresting, lets hope they don't have anyone coming the other way.
10:46 Interesting European Route... it is the predessor to the future site of hyperloop.....
Megaprojects in europe = only western europe and turkey or what? so there isnt anything happening in eastern europe like the cpk project thats strarting at the end of this year in poland or the train connection between poland - lithuania - latvia and estonia, ...
Rail Baltica and CPK are both part of the TEN-T. Tunnels trough the Alps and under the sea are more noteworthy.
Did cpk already have a green light ?
@@lws7394 yes it dit it will start around the summer time
16:15 - That's viaduct Črni Kal from Slovenia, my home country!
Good👍
Am mote excited is #5 European route E39
Thats a Future Project ...
the fact that sydney is doing the same thing as frankfurt airport shows that transportation is important
MAn proud to be European and proud to be funding these with our taxes. THey are focused on current problems and further future potential blockers as well as energy efficiency!
Being able to cut through (under) the Alps when going to Italy instead of driving around it? We have a personal winner 🙂
They also have to check Antwerp in Belgium. They building tunnels to make the Antwerp ring road round. Not only that, they also improve the infrastructure in the north and west of Antwerp. All of them are a part of the Oosterweel link. It should be done at 2030
European Route E39 and The stad ship tunnel bc its in my coutry
Excited for the ferryless e39. But will it ever be completed in my time (22y/o) unlikely. But i do really hope they go for the tall suspension bridge over the Sognefjord
tru it's newer gonna be done prob flying cars befor the road is........
@@malacruxnorman3162 We already do have flying cars. Helicopters...
Before I say all your videso are stunning, pls add the typed subtitles so that I can show this to our students.
6:57 RIP: Birds
You definitely forgot Oosterweel verbinding which has an estimated budget of 4.5 billion €.
The channel tunnel opened in 1992 not 2007, the high speed rail line that serves the tunnel opened in 2007, the track was upgraded for a faster service matching French rail speeds.✌️❤️🇬🇧
Kind of sad the delta works aren't on the list, what did you use for "biggest"?
I didnt know that my home country little Denmark had so Big plans
I'm missing there ITER fussion nuclear station in Cadarache, France. It's last official budget is about 20M€, but it will probably cost much more.
Muy bueno
dream without actions are just dreams
1:50 The Berlin Tegel Airport is closed since Nov 2020.
That is correct, but we used pre-covid data to show which airports were the most important during normal times
thanks denmark
What about ITER, the tokamak (Nuclear Fussion) reactor being built in France?
Yeah no way I'm taking a 26km tunnel lol I'd freak out
I live in istanbul and i see it a lot of time
Norway 😯
Messina Bridge?!
7:33 dis send Denmark dis in die Netherlands 😂 I live next to it
I don't understand why they want to build a second railway between Lyon and Turin there is already one... annd only few people use it.... there is no need for a second one.
This new tunnel is mainly for cargo traffic
@@MegaBuildsYT The curent one is used for cargo capacity and people and yet it is not use at full capacity. No need to build another one. It's a waste of ressources, and money.
The Stad tunnel will reduce travel by up to two hours?
It must be way more, ain't it?
