Croatia Highway Tunnels

All visitors travelling along the motorway A1 need no longer fear deadlocks at the tunnels of Mala Kapela and Sveti Rok. At the beginning of April, a new lane was opened for traffic in each of these two longest Croatian tunnels, enabling two-lane traffic in both directions and greatly contributing to a better traffic flow.
The existing lanes have been temporarily closed so they can be adapted for one-way traffic and the ventilation system can be brought up to date. Two-lane traffic in both directions will be set up by the time the season begins.
After the adaptation, the speed limit will be 100 kilometres per hour (now it is 80 km/h). Both tunnels at the Sveti Rok tunnel are connected by four safety passages for cars and 15 safety passages for pedestrians. The Mala Kapela tunnel will feature six car passages and 14 pedestrian ones.
