The connection between Italy and France will be closed from 16 October to 18 December 2023 for renovation works. A temporary closure that could be repeated in the autumn period until 2040. The Mont Blanc tunnel, with its 11.6 km, is the second longest tunnel in Italy, after the Fréjus tunnel which measures 12.8. The two Italian-French works are placed respectively in 18th and 22nd place in the ranking of the longest galleries in the world. Let’s now find out, in ascending order, which are the ten longest tunnels in the world (plus a final “surprise”).
