November 2018</ref> It shortens the journey between the cities of [[Plzeň]] and [[Rokycany]] from 20 to 11 minutes previously. The tunnel is designed for 200 km / h, but the maximum speed is limited to 160 km / h.
When building the two tubes, a tunnel boring machine from the manufacturer Herrenknecht was used, with which up to 182 meters were driven per week. The equivalent of 260 million euros was invested in the construction.
