Sjursøytunnelen is a 270 meter long tunnel in Oslo , the capital of Norway .
The tunnel has been used as a road tunnel since it opened in 1955 . The tunnel runs north from the northeast side of the roundabout at Kongshavnvei on Sjursøya to Mossevei. The tunnel was built in connection with the development of the port on Sjursøya. It was used for many years in both directions to and from the Mossevei and was later set up as a one-way street from the port to the north to Mossevei.
The road tunnel was closed in October 2015. Then Jernbaneverket started to build an access tunnel from the Sjursøytunnel in connection with the Follobanen project. This extends from Mossevei over 1200 meters to Ekebergåsen. Therefore, the tunnel was cordoned off and fenced off in spring 2016. The tunnel has been taken over by Jernbaneverket and will be used as an emergency exit when the Follobane is completed in 2021.
