When will the Fehmarn Belt fixed link open?
The tunnel between Rødby and Puttgarden was originally scheduled to open in 2029. In January 2026, Sund & Bælt announced a delay of at least two years, meaning the opening will be no earlier than 2031. Sund & Bælt’s director has since said that cars will be able to drive through no earlier than 2032. There is no official opening date, and a new overall timetable is not expected until six tunnel elements have been sunk.
If you are driving to the ferry from Jutland or Funen, you can see prices for the Great Belt Bridge here. If you are travelling to Sweden, we also have prices for the Øresund Bridge.
