Description / Abstract:
FOREWORD
In 2003, CIE decided to start a new Technical Committee TC4-43
dedicated to emergency lighting in road tunnels. There was at that
time no specific document on this important topic at CIE level. A
group of experts was formed in order to produce a new set of
recommendations that will help national standardization bodies to
build their own national standards. They will find in this report
some useful ideas as well as the common denominator of the practice
in several countries.
IMPORTANT
Tunnel emergency lighting may be subject to legal
requirements set out in some Regional and National directives and
regulations. Such requirements may differ from the recommendations
of this report, and take priority over them. Before following the
recommendations of the report in a particular location, the
existence of any relevant legal requirements should be
investigated.
