SEATTLE -- A tweet from Bertha Monday morning announced that she was getting back to work. A labor dispute halted Bertha on Aug. 20, but the world's largest tunnel boring machine is now back to business.

How much the work stoppage will impact the timeline of completion of the tunnel remains to be seen. The $3 billion tunnel project is expected to be completed by late 2015.
