 The World's longest tunnel Page - Perisher Blue Skitube"
Primarily, the Skitube was designed as a winter based access system to improve entry to the Perisher skifields Until then these fields were served by a single road of limited capacity that was, and still is, often adversely affected by snow and ice conditions during the winter months.
When it was decided to go ahead with the development of Blue Cow Mountain in 1984, Skitube was the most practical option for providing access to the resort and so Skitube was extended from Perisher to Blue Cow Mountain.
Perisher Blue Pty Ltd. The Skitube was constructed by the former owners being the joint venture partners of Kumagai (NSW) Pty Ltd and Transfield Corporate Pty Ltd. Originally these partners were joined with Bilston Welding Engineers Pty Ltd who together formed the Perisher Skitube Joint Venture.
