SUBFLUVIAL TUNNEL

This tunnel, which links the cities of Paraná and Santa Fe, was inaugurated in 1969 and is 2,937 m long. The history of its construction is a good illustration of how the Argentine provinces sometimes try to do without state services. The two provinces of Entre Ríos and Santa Fe were looking for a way to facilitate transport and communications between them. At first we thought of a bridge, but the state owns the rivers, and the rents would have come back to it. That's how the idea of building a track under the riverbed was born.
