The project is a rerouting of Interstate 581 in Roanoke, Virginia through a reinforced concrete tunnel from the Orange Avenue exit to the Elm Avenue exit with towers placed at intervals along the tunnel to provide light. A reinforced concrete pedestrian bridge links the towers and provides a path from downtown Roanoke to the Civic Center.1 volumeapplication/pdfenIn CopyrightbridgetowerutopiatunnelhorizonLD5655.V855 2010.N653Thesishttp://scholar.lib.vt.edu/theses/available/etd-05172010-135103/
