Whilst the glamourous rail and road tunnels are visible and exciting to the public in the modern era with ample space to perform maintenance activities, the forgotten world of utility tunnels are just as important in keeping our societies operating since the first millennium BCE.

Utility tunnels are smaller than their larger transport cousins, and with the added issue of noxious gas environments makes maintaining these tunnels inherently more difficult. Veolia undertakes routine maintenance activities on drainage networks including sewer tunnels. It is important to share the challenges faced with the management, and maintenance of these tunnels after construction is completed.
