Northumberland Strait Crossing will carry two-lane highway which can later be converted to four lanes and single-track railroad; traffic studies indicated that four lanes of traffic capacity will be required within 20 yr; components of crossing are -- Prince Edward Island approach road -- 4 mi, tunnel complex -- 13,000 ft, bridge -- 20,000 ft, causeway -- 10,400 ft, and New Brunswick approach road -- 4.3 mi; severe climatic conditions, including waves and floating ice, required special design procedures.
