Bornholm Tunnel Bornholm Tunnel The Bornholm Tunnel (, ) is a proposed railway tunnel which would be built between the island of Bornholm, belonging to Denmark, and Scania in Sweden. The tunnel would provide a fixed link to the island, both using direct trains running from Copenhagen and with a motorail service to transport automobiles. The tunnel would be long and provide a one-hour transit time for cars, including loading and unloading, and a two-hour service by rail to Copenhagen via the Ystad Line and the Oresund Line. The latter could be further reduced with construction of high-speed rail in southern Scania.
Bornholm Tunnel daily train services branded as Intercity Bornholm from Copenhagen Central Station to Ystad Station, where passengers transfer to the ferries. The last direct DSB service will operate on 9 December 2017, after that local train services are to be used. Danish Air Transport operates flights from Bornholm Airport to Copenhagen Airport. Costs for running the ferry service are DKK 400 million per year, of which DKK 150 million are subsidies. If the same user payment and subsidies was used to finance the tunnel, with a running time of 30 years, it would allow investments for DKK 10 billion. Estimates for
