It consists of two 2,300-metre (7,500 ft) long tubes, each of which carries two lanes of traffic through Damsgårdsfjellet from Lyngbø to Gyldenpris and the city centre. The tube that carries eastbound traffic was opened in 1992, while the other tube opened the following year.^[1] The Damsgård Tunnel is part of Norwegian National Road 555 from Hjellestad in Bergen, via Sund to Bergen's city centre. The average daily traffic through the Damsgård Tunnel was 35,127 vehicles in 2007, up from 29,336 in 2000.^[2]
