Hell they won’t build a bridge to Kodak. Build one there first.

The Bering Sea? About 13k ft.
Max depth in the strait is 90 meters.
Putin green lit a Russian project on their side to connect to the tunnel in 2011. Nothing came of it because we cant get our shite straight.

It will probably be a tunnel. The Strait is very shallow.
The arctic is the next resource frontier. Countries (including the USA) are scrambling to put infrastructure in place.
We've converting ships to icebreakers. But you'll need more than the ability to sail if the Arctic resource race comes to fruition.
Even then there is no reason to build said bridge to Russia.
Consolidating US resources up there does not require connecting the US to Russia with a "tunnel"
The area is a earthquake hotspot as well, as you know.

There is nothing in either country worth connecting for hundreds and hundreds of miles. No one lives there.

It would be such an amazing accomplishment of the human race to build a bridge across it and connect the American continent to Eurasia. With modern engineering, I have to believe it is possible. I would love to see it happen someday. It could be a huge benefit for the USA and the world in terms of economic development!
While I personally think you’re fricking retarded, I do have some good news. These are the type of ideas that can land you a kush spot and millions of dollars working in government

It’s the same reason there is no bridge between Sicily and Italy.
Same for Spain and Morocco.

bridge from nowhere to nowhere?
With nobody around to use it and no reason for anybody to ever need to use it.

Big dreams. I like it. Don't let the PT fudds get you down. If we can get to Mars, we can connect the continents.

They are about to build one actually.

I think there are some pretty bad currents through there

This would be the biggest waste of money in human history.

Don't let these negative comments get you down Nate! Stay gold, Ponyboy.

Looks like it will work.

I had a similar idea years ago about building a bridge from the Florida Keys to the Gulf Coast as a way to cut down drive time. However, it's not feasible because of the water depth, hurricanes and lack of land mass.
So stupid ideas are a habit

As a bridge yes, possibly. What about the road systeem on either side after you cross this bridge?

Literally 500 miles from the nearest rail station in Fairbanks, and well over 1000 miles from the Trans Siberian Railway stop on the Russian side.
