		The current position regarding road tunnels in Ireland is that we have one existing TEN road tunnel between 500 metres and 1,000 metres long which comes within the terms of the directive, namely, the Jack Lynch tunnel in Cork.
		Tunnels will have to be renovated according to a schedule not exceeding ten years.
		The nature of tunnel design, construction and operation, by definition, involves the integration of a range of areas of technical expertise, some of which are quite daunting.

	Peoples Republic Of Cork Forums - Damage to Tunnel could exceed 100,000
		A SAFETY inspection was launched at the Jack Lynch tunnel in Cork yesterday after an oversized lorry caused severe damage to roof-mounted electrical equipment.
		Tunnel engineering manager Dan O'Neill said the closure will be implemented "for a considerable time" as major inspections continue to determine the nature and extent of the damage.

		The technical provisions of the directive regarding, for example, ventilation, extraction devices, shelters and escape galleries are being examined by the Department of Transport, with a view to determining their impact on the Jack Lynch and Dublin Port tunnels.
		While the height of the tunnel is attracting much comment, most of it unwarranted, I am more concerned with getting clarification on other safety aspects, including the ventilation issue, which has always been a concern of residents along the line of the tunnel, and the safety galleries.
		It should be possible to implement them in the Dublin Port tunnel from the outset and if work is required on the Jack Lynch tunnel it should be done.

	Engineers claim there is 'No design flaw' in low-clearance Dublin tunnel - Irish Architectural News
		There is no design flaw in the Dublin Port Tunnel, the project's engineers insisted yesterday, even though it will be too low for some of the 9,000 lorries which use the port each day.
		The tunnel, the major element of the city council's plan to reduce the number of articulated trucks trundling through Dublin's city centre each day, is designed to fast-track lorries from the M50 to the port.
		And despite the clearance height, the actual height of vehicles using the tunnel will be further restricted, to 4.65 metres, as in the case of the Jack Lynch Tunnel under the River Lee in Cork.

		The tunnel is expected to cater for 20,000 vehicles per day, and if it does so, it will radically reduce traffic conjestion in the city.
		The benifits to Cork From the Lee tunnel will be a significant reduction in traffic congestion along with improved access to the city, suburban and harbour areas afforded by the ring road network.
		In this way the tunnel will contribute to the ongoing revitalisation and environmental improvement in the city and to commercial and economic activity in the region overall.

		The official opening was followed on the weekend of 22nd and 23rd May by a charity walk through the tunnel organised by the Rotary Clubs of Glanmire and Douglas.
		This one and only opportunity to walk under the River Lee, as for safety reasons pedestrians are precluded from using the tunnel under normal circumstances, captured the imagination of the people of Cork city and county and from even further afield, as an estimated 100,000 people completed the walk over the two days.

		Completed projects such as the Jack Lynch Tunnel and by-passes Arklow, Cavan and Donegal, as well as the Kinnegad Relief Road, have eliminated many of the worst traffic bottlenecks on the network bringing substantial benefits to local and long distance traffic.
		These achievements were possible because of the unprecedented level of investment in national roads during l999, £418m, an increase of £130m or 45% on the 1998 programme.
		A significant feature of the allocations being notified to local authorities for 2000 is the provision of over £44 million for forward planning and design of major projects compared with expenditure £14.5m for this purpose in l999.
