DESIGN AND OPERATION OF THE MELBOURNE CITYLINK TUNNELS

The Melbourne CityLink project contains two tunnels. When fully operational each tunnel will carry around 40,000 vehicles per day. This paper describes the design of the control systems for these tunnels. The design was a collaborative effort by various parties including the designers, the owners, the operators and the emergency services. For the covering abstract see ITRD E114957.
