vehicle tunnel fire safety

Fire safety standards in European tunnels are being critically reviewed in the wake of the serious fires that have occurred in recent years. Major research initiatives have quantified the fire challenge posed by heavy goods vehicles transporting loads classed as 'non-dangerous' and novel mitigation strategies are being developed.

Halcrow is a leader in the field of tunnel design and our in-house expertise in the fire safety engineering aspects of these structures ensures that we will continue to offer our clients a complete design package.
