| Project Detail |
El Sinaloense tunnel is located in the state of Sinaloa and is the most important due to its size and the complexity of the Durango Mazatlán highway; it is the second longest in the country stretching 2,794 metres. This type of tunnel has an equipment level similar to that used in Europe, which kick-started a new generation of tunnels with equipment such as: Lighting system. Communication system (emergency telephone, megaphones, CCT cameras). Ventilation system (reversible fans, gas detectors, temperature sensor cable). Fire-protection system (hydrants, extinguishers, pumping systems). Signalling system (electronic board, traffic lights, emergency exit, reflective road studs). Fibre optic systems control. El Sinaloense covers: 1.16% of section III total and 44.16% of tunnel length. |
