Burlington Tunnel
The Burlington Tunnel (also known as the North Avenue Rail Tunnel) is a railroad tunnel located in Burlington, Vermont and is currently owned and operated by the New England Central Railroad (NECR). According to the inscription on its southern entrance, the Burlington Tunnel was constructed beginning on 1 November 1860, and completed on 17 May 1861 for a predecessor railroad to the Central Vermont Railway. The tunnel runs in a northeast/southwest curve, while the external approach trackage runs from south to east. The street overpassing the Burlington Tunnel is North Avenue (Functional classification of 16; Urban Minor Arterial) which has an Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) of about 12,000 vehicles.〔Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission ~ (Transportation Data Library ), 2005〕
==Tunnel Dimensions==
The Burlington Rail Tunnel, located at Milepost 1.15 of the NECR Winooski spur line, is a long brick masonry horseshoe shaped tunnel that passes through the sandy ridge supporting North Avenue (Burlington) on a curve of approximately four degrees. North Avenue runs in a north to south direction while the tunnel runs approximately in an east to west direction. The tunnel, constructed in 1860, originally had an overall height of approximately (prior to the 2008 repairs, which lowered the floor of the tunnel) and a width of roughly at the base, increasing to approximately wide at approximately above top of rail. The tunnel provides passage for a single track over ballast. The track grade is generally level.〔(Route 15 Corridor Improvement Plan: Burlington-Essex Rail Project - Burlington Rail Tunnel Assessment ), DMJM Harris, May 2002〕
A major gas line which runs from a building on the southeast quadrant of the existing tunnel structure easterly across the wetlands and under the Burlington Connector highway (VT Route 127) to the east. There is also an extensive aerial power line system which runs along the railroad right-of-way and up over North Avenue.
