Road and rail tunnels: challenges and solutions
Experience has shown that self-rescue is a critical factor during tunnel fire incidents, in both road and rail tunnels. However, the needs of rail passengers during a tunnel fire emergency are very different from those in road tunnels. This presentation looks at active systems for tunnel fire safety (ventilation, deluge systems, etc.) and explores how these can be best used to support self-rescue of passengers, in both road and rail environments. Along the way we’ll touch upon system design and how fires react to active systems in tunnel environments.Experience has shown that self-rescue is a critical factor during tunnel fire incidents, in both road and rail tunnels.
