1 Emergencies in road tunnels Consideration of the needs of people with disabilities Dr. Regina Ernst & Dr. Dirk Boenke Rehabilitation International (RI)
2 Road tunnels: Special conditions (1) traffic function important function within the road network ensuring flow of traffic during breakdowns and (smaller) accidents no people outside a car during normal operation mode no pedestrians (only emergency walkways) legal framework public roads and buildings (and as so far tunnels) have to be barrier-free use allowed for all people within the framework of road and traffic laws
3 Road tunnels: special conditions (2) possibly high fire load, e. g. if HGV starts to burn chimney effect high danger: fire development and smoke spreading in longer tunnels (>400 m) no fire sections in the tunnel (traffic area) in the last years high safety standards in most tunnels in Europe considerating the needs of disabled tunnel users?
4 Research project FE /2005/FRB:*) Consideration of the needs of disabled people when equipping and operating road tunnels funded by Consideration of the needs of disabled people when equipping and operating road tunnels edited by
5 Disabled people in road tunnels disabled road tunnel users car, self-driver (e. g. wheelchair, deaf) co-driver (e. g. blind and visual impairments, cognitive disabled) people with disabilities participate in traffic in general they may get into emergency situations in traffic or in road tunnels
6 Disabled people in road tunnels Possible problems of disabled tunnel users accessibility of emergency walkways accessibility and usability of emergency phones and emergeny telephone boxes locating the emergency exits opening the emergency exit doors kerb
7 Future safety measures in road tunnels kerb height in new tunnels 3 cm kerb is needed as impact protection and to pass liquids (e. g. gas; slotted channels) RABT 2006 New RABT RABT: Richtlinien für die Ausstattung und den Betrieb in Straßentunneln Guidelines for fitting and operation of road tunnels
8 Future safety measures in road tunnels Escape route signs with orientation light mounted every 25 m or less in the future with a tactile marking
9 Future safety measures in road tunnels highlighted emergency exit doors emergency route sign green lights green coating window emergency walkway carriageway
10 Future safety measures in road tunnels Tactile ground surface indicators (blisters) in front and opposite of emergency exits Photo: HSVV, Seeger
11 Future safety measures in road tunnels opening of emergency exit doors will be easier in the future force needed to open door was lowered to 60N (100N with forced ventilation) problem of forced ventilation is difficult to solve in the future automatic opening assistance? Photo: STUVA, Grossmann
12 Future safety measures in road tunnels Discussed and not yet included in technical specifications (will be taken into account for follow-up of guidelines) two emergency buttons outside the emergency phone boxes mounted at 0.85 m above ground tactile letters SOS flashlight and audible signal if pressed (two-senses-principle)
13 Future safety measures in road tunnels Discussed and not yet included in technical specifications (will be taken into account for follow-up of guidelines) safe areas for wheelchair users or wheeled walkers located behind the emergency voice communication exit doors display video if emergency tunnel may be intermediate area wheelchair inclined or an emergency staircase is existing emergency tunnel road tunnel emergency exit
14 Outlook and conclusions measures are or will be implemented at Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI) instance measures are already included or will be included in follow-ups of technical specifications shortly will be implemented in new tunnels for existing tunnels only limited implementation because of technical and economical reasons measures will improve safety of all tunnel users
