What should I do if my vehicle breaks down in a tunnel?

Our cameras monitor traffic conditions 24 hours a day. If you break down or crash in a tunnel, an incident response team will be sent out right away.

If you break down in a tunnel you should:

  • drive out of the tunnel or, if this isn't possible, try to stop in a right or left lane
  • turn on your hazard lights and radio and switch off your engine
  • remain in your vehicle unless there’s a fire or you're asked to evacuate by the control room
  • in an evacuation, look for the running man symbols and flashing lights for a safe exit point

If you need to call for help, use the emergency telephones in the tunnel. Alternatively you can use your mobile phone to call 13 33 31

Or EastLink on 9955 1400
