       Notes - general: The choice of a road in tunnel is often an
                        increasingly environmentally attractive solution to
                        road alignment when compared with a new road at or
                        above ground level.  This study examines the important
                        factors involved, namely the raison d'etre for tunnel,
                        the geotechnical constraints on construction, the
                        design of the tunnel (particularly with respect to
                        mechanical and electrical installations), operation
                        methods and the costs of operating for each tunnel.
