Developing a Tunnel Operation and Maintenance Plan

P. Fordyce

A tunnel is a complex facility with many operational parts. The successful operation of the tunnel is important to the safety of the users and can have an impact on the economy of the area. If people and goods are unable to travel through the tunnel, it can cause a shortage of goods and can prevent people from moving to their destinations. A Tunnel Operations plan will provide a framework for the tunnel for both normal and emergency situations. Tunnels present a unique situation for both the traveling public and for first responders in case of an emergency. The public may be called upon to leave the tunnel during an emergency by means of exit paths that are unfamiliar. First responders need defined methods to use the available tools to inform the public, prevent hysteria and to mitigate the emergency circumstances.
