A focus on road tunnel lighting for the Tunnels Committee in Nice
The Tunnels Committee met in Nice on 22nd and 23rd October 2025 at the invitation of the Nice Côte d’Azur and the Alpes Maritimes local authorities.
This Committee meets twice a year and acts as a discussion forum for local authorities responsible for the operation of road tunnels.
After a first day of technical visits, the forty or so participants met the following day for a technical workshop on road tunnel lighting.
This second day was an opportunity to review the regulatory framework and best practices, and to benefit from valuable feedback on lighting for active modes of transport, measures to promote energy efficiency, and consideration of wildlife and light pollution in the vicinity of tunnels.
