he president of Russian Railways, Vladimir Yakunin has revealed his proposed plan to build a 19,955 km super-highway stretching all the way from New York through to London.
The super-highway will make use of existing highway infrastructure in Europe and Asia to connect the east coast of America to London while thousands of kilometres of new roads would also be constructed. With that in mind, 9980 km of existing highway in Russia could be used.
I would drive it if there were:
1.plenty of gas stations
2. good tunes
3. a hot russian/eastern european with me
4. I had a good tent
5. It was summer
What about yall?

Maybe a high speed train ride, but frick driving that far

I didn't look at the article first
That looks like the most boring drive ever made if possible
I believe for half the year 50% of that roadd is iced. Also mixing American drivers and Russian drivers is a horrid idea. So many people will die in road rage fueds

It would be a hell of a roadtrip. It would be awesome for retires ppl and college kids with the summers off.

Yeah good luck with that during the winter storm months. This isn't ice road truckers.

so how are we going to anchor those super highway footings into the sea floor?
It would be a tunnel and there are islands in between so it is actually doable.

It sounds like an april fools story.

There's already a highway from NYC to London.
You just have to use a boat or a plane on it.

the world would be much better served with a cargo train line that went across the bering strait

Are they going to use solar roads?

Same here. That's what I thought at first. Couldn't figure out why a Russian guy was proposing it.

The stretch from Moscow to Michigan would be rough
