Traffic Safety of Highway Adjoining Tunnel and Tunnel Group in Accidents

By setting tunnel units, the definitions and parameters of highway individual tunnel, adjoining tunnel and tunnel group have been worked out. Considering that the disaster prevention and control of adjoining tunnel and tunnel group in accidents is more complicated than that of individual tunnel and that tunnels affect each other, the traffic control of many tunnels on the same line while in fire has been researched carefully. To some extent, the research result will prevent the traffic accident from becoming worse and the secondary disasters from happening, which is of great significance when conducting research on traffic safety of highway adjoining tunnel and tunnel group in accidents.
