V International Tunnelling Forum

6-8 February 2023, Warsaw, Poland

It has become a tradition that the series of conferences of the Polish Road Congress begins each year with a Forum dedicated to tunnel construction and operation. We would like to invite you to the next, 5th International Tunnelling Forum. In this edition, we will also be hosting speakers from abroad representing best practice and knowledge in the subject matter of the event. The Tunnelling Forum's standing is confirmed by its patronage by the International Tunnelling and Underground Space Association ITA-AITES. This time we are meeting in Warsaw, but for your convenience the meeting will be organised in a hybrid format. On the last day of the conference, you will have the opportunity to take part in a technical visit to a tunnel on the Warsaw Southern Ring Road. During the Forum, we will discuss new challenges facing tunnel designers, builders and managers, we will delve into the operation and management of existing tunnels and we will discuss new solutions for tunnel construction and equipment, also in terms of ventilation, lighting and safety. During the Forum, one session will be dedicated to the construction and management of urban and heavy-traffic tunnels. Event with simultaneous translation Polish/English.
