International Channel Tunnel Group

The International Channel Tunnel Group was a consortium formed to develop and operate the Channel Tunnel, also known as the Eurotunnel, which connects the United Kingdom and France beneath the English Channel. Established in the early 1980s, the group brought together companies and financial partners to plan, finance, and manage this massive engineering project. The tunnel facilitates passenger and freight transportation, improving trade and travel between the two countries. Its creation was a significant engineering achievement, necessitating international cooperation for construction, operation, and maintenance.
