PLANS for a £1 billion Solent Tunnel have been unveiled by two Isle of Wight businessmen. Carl Feeney and Kevin Price started a Facebook debate on the issue earlier this month and today (Tuesday) they revealed their idea for what shape a fixed link could take. They have proposed a road and rail tunnel, with terminals in Arreton and Titchfield, between Fareham and Southampton, with an estimated cost of £1 billion. The plans, which include an Isle of Wight monorail network, can be seen on a specially created website solenttunnel.zz.mu. A government e-petition has also been set up in favour of the tunnel. Proposed tolls would be £10 each way for Islanders, although £1,000-a-year permits allowing three return trips a day could also be offered. Foot passengers would be charged £3 each way to travel to Fareham on the train. The website features a section for people to have their say on the plans, which have been developed with Isle of Wight tunnel and bridge specialists. As well as tapping into possible government funding, there are also proposals for private equity funding. The website also seeks to address Islanders' concerns about issues from red squirrels to traffic and crime. A statement on the site said: "This website shows a potential plan that may be realistic or, perhaps, another plan would be better? But it is a plan and as engineers were consulted beforehand, it is feasible. "It has been produced with no expense apart from lots of time taken to provide information as we see it. We believe this design gives opportunities to Islanders to improve their lifestyle and business possibilities and reduce traffic congestion and vehicular use. "In order for an economy to grow, communication and fast transport is imperative." Online campaigns against the idea of a fixed link have also appeared in recent weeks. http://www.iwcp.co.uk/news/news/solent-tunnel-plans-revealed-70332.aspx |
