Description
The Channel Tunnel was a huge construction project, employing over 14,000 people at its peak, and costing over #11 billion of private money. This book follows the project, and shows how it has succeeded in spite of great financial, political and technical difficulties, and a fundamentally flawed contract. This book should be of interest to professionals involved in tunnelling, contractors, tunnelling and railway engineers, surveyors, planners; politicians; financiers; bankers and others concerned with planning or financing major projects; and the general reader interested in the story of the Tunnel.
Author Biography
Graham Anderson and Ben Roskrow are both leading construction journalists who have specialised in writing articles about the Channel Tunnel.
