The purpose of the study is to evaluate the influence of an urban road tunnel in the atmosphere of contiguous working premises. Biological monitoring (COHb) on maintenance staff is added. Tunnel pollution levels are strongly correlated with the traffic intensity and influence the air quality of technical rooms in the same way as COHb concentration of employees.
