Summary:In recent years the rate of construction of transport tunnels and metro tunnels has increased in Russia. The geography of their facilities covers almost the entire territory of our country, including megalopolises with dence building system. The construction and operation of all types of tunnels are associated with the negative impact of technological processes on the environment. This article describes the differences of negative impact features of the tunnel construction comparing to the impact from construction of facilities on the surface. The factors affecting the level of negative impact are shown. Some results of environmental impact assessment and ecological monitoring are given.
