8. Big Dig aka the Central Artery/Tunnel Project (CA/T)
Billed as the most expensive highway project in the US, the Big Dig is the colloquial name given to Boston’s Central Artery/Tunnel Project (CA/T). The project turned a highway through the centre of the city into a tunnel, plus added bridges and tunnels to the existing network. It was ambitious, to say the least, and had a rough road to completion. Accusations about corruption and fraud flew, people died in construction accidents and the bill came to a whopping US $22 billion.

The project looks good if chinses have taken inot consideration the earth quake factor in design otherwise it may bring greater catastrophe to Chinese who are hit by frequent earthquakes and floods
