The decision to build a tunnel in Mobile, Alabama, rather than a bridge was primarily driven by environmental concerns and the need to maintain navigational access for large vessels in the Mobile River. A tunnel allows for unobstructed shipping traffic, accommodating the region's significant port activities, while minimizing the impact on the surrounding landscape and ecosystems. Additionally, a tunnel can reduce the visual and noise disruptions often associated with a bridge, making it a more favorable option for the community.
