Explanation:

• The Norwegian Coastal Administration has received the green signal to start working on the construction of world’s first tunnel, being built exclusively for ships.
• The tunnel is dubbed as “Stad Ship Tunnel” and would be built under the mountainous Stadhavet peninsula in northwestern Norway.
• The 1.7 km tunnel will be able to handle ships of up to 16,000 tonnes and give ships a safer passage through the treacherous Stadhavet Sea.
• The tunnel will be 49 metres (161 ft) high and 36 metres (118 ft) wide.
