The first tunnel element of the Fehmarnbelt Tunnel was immersed on the Danish side this week marking a key construction milestone in the long-running effort to create a fixed link between continental Europe and Scandinavia.

Isn’t the long side of each segment meant to be parallel to the shore? I thought that the wide side was the one that had the tunnel openings.
Those segments are 217m x 47m. The tunnel is not that wide.
