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.
