  Conceptual design of immersed tunnel tubes of the Adriatic

  Connecting larger inhabited Adriatic islands between themselves and with the mainland into a unique road system will be done by constructing a series of immersed tunnels through the sea, above the seabed. The tunnels will be immersed enough to ensure unimpeded ship traffic. Their position in the sea will be ensured by laying the tunnel tubes onto supports which will prevent the tubes from emerging due to buoyancy or sinking to the sea bottom in case the sea penetrates the tunnel tube. The length of these tunnels will range between 2.5 km and 13.5 km and in accordance with regulations on the safety of tunnel traffic, the tunnel tube will consist of two separates tubes, one for each direction, and one service tube with the emergency lane, the ventilation tube and the infrastructural installations tube.
