The Holland Tunnel was built using the "cut-and-cover" method, where a trench was excavated on land, and then covered with a roof to create the tunnel. Construction began in 1920, and the underwater section was created by boring through the riverbed using a combination of compressed air and a circular tunnel boring machine. After the tunnel was completed, the trench was filled in with soil, and roadways were constructed on top. This innovative engineering allowed the tunnel to safely navigate under the Hudson River, linking New York City and New Jersey.

Tunnels are long underground passageways that carry highways, railroads, and pipelines under mountains, seas, and rivers.The tunnel was drilled right through the mountains so cars and trucks could pass through. Tunnels can be built underground to carry people. Tunnels are also built to carry waste water away from the city.
