      Absolutely right. TBM tunnelling is one of the techniques but it is not the only tunnelling technique. It is not one size fits all solution.

        Drill & Blast tunnelling is far more harmful to the workers' lungs compared to the TBM tunnelling.

          Sorry I replied at the wrong place. I repeat here: You are right. Cost is not the only reason why you may want to go for non-TBM tunnelling. As you have pointed out there are some other important considerations in favour of conventional tunnelling.

                I think the companies in the consortium know that it will be difficult for them to convince the public  and authorities in any future public tender in Australia.

                  Probably this tunnel will serve China to make the Uygurland a `more Chinese` land. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-11-10/uyghur-culture-under-threat-in-china-thrives-in-australia/11673636
