QUÉ SIGNIFICA TUNNEL EN INGLÉS
Túnel
Un túnel es un pasadizo subterráneo o submarino, cerrado excepto para entrada y salida, comúnmente en cada extremo. Un túnel puede ser para tráfico peatonal o vehicular, para tráfico ferroviario o para un canal. Las porciones centrales de una red de tránsito rápido están normalmente en túnel. Algunos túneles son acueductos para suministrar agua para consumo o para estaciones hidroeléctricas o son alcantarillas. Los túneles de utilidad se utilizan para enrutar vapor, agua fría, cables de energía eléctrica o de telecomunicaciones, así como para conectar edificios para el paso conveniente de personas y equipos. Los túneles secretos están construidos para fines militares, o por civiles para el contrabando de armas, contrabando o personas. Túneles especiales, tales como cruces de vida silvestre, están construidos para permitir que la vida silvestre atraviese las barreras humanas de manera segura.
