Løvstakken Tunnel

The Løvstakken Tunnel (Norwegian: Løvstakktunnelen) is a road tunnel in the city of Bergen in Vestland county, Norway.

The tunnel connects the Fyllingsdalen area with the eastern part of the borough of Laksevåg and the city centre.

It was built in 1968 to improve connectivity with the newly developed area.

[3] To improve matters, the flammable polyethylene foam in the tunnel was removed, fire extinguishers and emergency phones were installed at 50-metre (160 ft) and 250-metre (820 ft) intervals respectively, surveillance cameras, emergency lighting, and emergency signage were introduced, and the speed limit was reduced from 70 to 60 kilometres per hour (43 to 37 mph).

This raised the safety standard to minimum requirements, but the traffic volume is still large for a single tunnel.
