Have there been any reasonable explanations as to why a new tunnel was not a viable option for this project.
At this point, a monorail OVER the mountain would have been faster and cheaper, I bet.

My guess is that they were too nonchalant about the state of the tunnel, and jumped in because it seemed to be a handy “free” shortcut.

They’ve been working on that tunnel since, what, 2019? And they finally discovered the mould… last week?
Tell us another one, cher grand-père.

As in so many other things, trying to cheap out is often more expensive.
