Hi All. Scrap that short message I wrote above trying to use aweful phone keyboards.
Lets see.

I didn't know anything on how to ... humm .. "dig" the ground.
OMG! this is beautiful!! D:
Digging the ground, as SHM says needs to be preprocessed in the terrain, and rebuilt with terragear.
How should "bridges" be implemented ? (with the layout, or as 3D object ?)
Totally 3D. As SHM says, look for EDDP (Leipzig -- great bridge) and EDDF (Frankfort? - dont recall seeing it?).
Terragear. well yes, it scary. But the point I need to raise is, we need to build a community of terragearers that can help with rebuilding the world in terraGIT. We can do it tile by tile. I hope D-ECHO and Wlbragg join the effort. Not only because of their experience on that field, but also because they 'meddled' with landclasess making a much more beautiful world. Parenthesis apart, we need to hop off the fear to terragear. It is a must to unflood places (KHAF, St Martin), and lift the ground off others (SGAS, or Dubai), and to really do something to improve our world.
Now to the issue pertinent here, bear with me Daweed, the problem is, as I say, the resolution. The scenery was build with either SRTM-1 (USA) or SRTM-3 everywhere-else. This causes that digs that are less than 3-arcsecond can't exist on the elevation data - or won't be interpreted or so (I fear). And I far your hole in the ground is not massive as that resolution. Even If I am wrong on this one, then exist the problem of manually editing HTG files, and the problem that such mod wont go upstream (to panoramio) so it will be lost on a succesive world built (I am sorry for sounding Thorstenian on this one).
In any case, this is my take-home message. Simulator players rarely never will go to underground facilities in our scenery
This means, the task is building the most realistic above the ground features, and maybe whit the look of the aboveground features hint to the fact that Orpheos and the Underworld does exist!
(I love real keyboards)
Let me know if now I am clear.
Best
