PROFILE |
 |
Eurotunnel S.A., along with UK counterpart Eurotunnel P.L.C., operates train service for passengers (about 19 million a year), vehicles, and freight through the tunnel underneath the English Channel. The Eurotunnel group developed and owns the Channel Tunnel, which was finally completed in 1994 after nearly two centuries of planning. The tunnel has endured operating problems and a damaging fire in late 1996. Additionally, Eurotunnel S.A. owns a trans-European telecommunications company; it is also expanding its retail developments near the Calais, France, station to encourage day trips. The tunnel also hosts the Eurostar train, a high-speed rail service with routes connecting London, Paris, and Brussels.
