Brief

This project aims to review and update the criteria for selecting road cross-sections in tunnels. Due to outdated calculation methods, changes in regulations, and the need to incorporate sustainability and availability aspects, a reassessment of previous decisions is necessary. The project will consider not only the regular operation of the tunnel but also temporary conditions such as accidents, fires, breakdowns, and routine maintenance. It will also address the long-term renovation of the structure and its technical equipment. The goal is to either revise the existing selection process or develop a new multi-criteria approach for determining the required road cross-section in tunnels, ensuring that updated criteria are applied. Special attention will be given to the specific characteristics of each structure and previously overlooked sustainability and availability factors.
