Spain & Morocco, Strait Tunnel

Possibly the next world scale civil engineering project will be the construction of the above. We have indicated in an earlier blog that Europe and the world generally, in its own interests, needs to help the states of Africa develop their economies.
One of the steps with this end in view could well be the construction of the above - probably a 20 year project. Current plan envisages a 39K tunnel linking the area of Tangiers to a spot in Spain near Tarifa. Approximately 28K would be under the ocean. Because of the instability of the ocean floor it is envisaged that this project would be much more difficult than the Channel Tunnel. However, Spain and Morocco appear to have reached agreement in principal.
Imagine the implications of being able to board a train in say Glascow and arrive in Capetown. What would be the implications for the Canary Islands and Tenerife?
