This year's blockbuster news said that the Bohai Bay Cross sea Channel (also known as the Yantai University Undersea Tunnel) is expected to be completed in 2025, and it will only take 40 minutes from Yantai to Dalian! It greatly shortens the travel distance from Yantai to Dalian.

Time is uncertain. In February 2019, the cross sea passage of the Bohai Strait has been included in the Outline of Cooperation and Development in the Bohai Rim Region, the 13th Five Year Plan for Shandong Province, the Medium and Long term Development Plan for Shandong's Integrated Transport Network (2018-2035) and other national and local documents [1]. The construction of the Bohai Strait cross sea channel has not yet started.
