This workpackage will assess monitoring and detection systems installed at present, assess if improvements to those systems could be made, evaluate new methods and techniques for determining incidents and fires inside and outside tunnels. To ensure that the ultimate results of UPTUN are achieved, it will be necessary to make a detailed database of all road and rail tunnels in Europe, detailing the type of tunnels in each country, what type of detection systems are in place, whether any suppression systems are installed, details of recent incidents. This database will then be used to analyse these recent incidents and to assess if tunnels that have better monitoring and detection systems achieved a quicker response to an incident, thus reducing the impact of an incident and minimising the economic impact in surrounding areas.
