Driving risk variation in mountainous highway tunnels of different lengths: Field evidence from Chongqing, China
Driving risks in two-lane highway tunnels exhibit distinct spatial distribution characteristics, with tunnel entrances and exits being the most risk-prone zones. Short tunnels, due to the frequent transition effect, present more pronounced risks. The findings provide theoretical support for tunnel structural design optimization, speed limit, and lighting system.
