Bering Strait Bridge when?

Will Emperor Trump and buddy Putin make the peace tunnel a reality?

Only if the bridge looks like a dick on the american side and a pussy on the russian side so mother russia can get some good american dicking

Wouldn't trains make more sense?

Wouldn't a bridge there weather at an alarming rate?

Also it would need to be enclosed to stop ice and winds shutting it all the time

Fuck you

Good luck getting through Canada, we don't take kindly to racists here.

The train in the picture does have trains. Look underneath the road.

I fucking hope so

This is only useful for train shipment

Literally no reason to drive that out in the middle of nowhere it's cheaper and faster to fly

>implying that you would have a choice.

just run one of those jet-engine powered snowplows down it once a week, it'll be fine

>hey guys why not build a bridge across a rough, windy ocean to connect frozen wasteland A to frozen wasteland B

>we're going to send you angry tweets

>we

Speak for yourself you fucking cuck.

This guy is asking the right question.

No, Americans do not use trains.

Indeed. The real reason it hasn't been built is because the cost would vastly outweigh the minimal benefits.

This. People don't realize how big Alaska and Eastern Russia are. Items can be shipped for next to nothing via container ships from Asia to America, and for things that need to get there quicker there's air freight. By train or truck this route would take days, across terrain that's inhospitable 6 months out of the year.

It would make for some badass road trips though.

So we can colonize Eastern Russia.

If it does happen, I'm taking a month off to do a new york to london road trip.

Actually just did a report on this. Lot of good benefits actually. It would be a crazy great way to transport oil(rails are replacing cargo ships as the main way to transport and pipelines are #1) and would give an incentive to start drilling all the reserves in Alaska or import stuff from Serbia. Lotta oil in Serbia that's not being used.

Another great benefit would be immigration from WHITE and east Asian countries instead of the shit third world immigration we get now.

Costs arent that bad. The bridges(Serbie-Diomede Islands and Alaska-Diomede Islands) themselves would only be like $5 billion. There would be less than 500 mi of freeway to be built on the Alaska side for $2 billion. On the Russian side there would be about 1,000 miles of highway to build but you could cut a deal with China ( who actually already has planned to build the connection at some point). So total costs would be far less than $100 billion split up over 3 superpower countries.

Underground trains like the British-French connection?

for what purpose? Siberia is an uninhabited wasteland and so is Alaska

OP here, road trips are the only reason honestly, and it would be sick to drive JDM shit home instead of sketchy importers

both are proposed, sometimes simultaneously

Most americans don't know what a train is.

Any kind of transpacific rail bridge would lead to explosive growth in eastern russia and would also make alaska more money. It's about time Alaska and the lower 50 got a highway where we dont have to enter Canada

Even if it's strictly rail, no doubt it would have a vehicle tram service like the chunnel does.

Still counts as a road trip.

Is it even possible? I would love to see this!

Most of our rail is used for freight
Most passenger services have to rent time on rails since we gave all the land to railroads for basically nothing

Imagine having an accident or just a flat tire on that bridge!
Imagine having to leave the heated interior of your car to go outside into -35°C and lashing winds.

Only the stronk survive

regardless it would most likely be a car "ferry" sort of system like the Chunnel

maybe some russian products can make their way and set up shop in the usa and maybe a huge massive invasion of russian girls can be a thing that goes on in the west coast following the coastline reaching to the rockies.

That would be the best road trip ever.
I'd drive it.

This majority triggers me.

>Alaska
>uninhabited wasteland
Its got more oil than all of the middle east

It has more natural resources than your 3rd world country. You're jealous since you live in a 3rd world swamp with no resources.
