He issues orders for tunnel closures during repairs, unscheduled events or incidents. He is also responsible for ventilation and other equipment, for making a detailed record of failures in equipment and sending this information to the Tunnel Manager. The Tunnel Supervisor schedules various working shifts for personnel and establishes the priorities between scheduled and unscheduled tasks.
5. Tunnel (обслуживающий персонал) works under the direction of the Tunnel Foreman. Their duties include daily checking of tunnel elements, roadway, and surrounding right-of-way; removing debris or icicles; taking care of routine equipment maintenance. If there is a heavy (накопление снега и льда), they apply mechanical means or a chemical de-icing to clean the track. They also remove leaves that are blown into the tunnels by winds and, compressed by trains (колеса) on the railhead, they can bring some railway sections to a halt. (Крупная пыль), predominantly sand, accumulates on the track, while fine dust sticks to the tunnel walls and (своды).
6. Safe tunnel operation requires a number of tunnel workers directed by the Tunnel Foreman. They perform the daily duties including tunnel washing and painting, drainage and drain washing, replacing of light fixtures, grass cutting, etc. They also support the Mechanical and Electrical Specialists. When a track maintenance gang identifies a track (повреждение), time is essential, and the workers make decisions and act fast.
7. The Tunnel Electrical Specialist performs maintenance functions within the tunnel to ensure that generators and motors operate properly and batteries are charged. He checks CCTV cameras, fire detection and suppression equipment, carbon monoxide detectors, electronic drive systems, etc., and makes repairs to running electrical lines, conduits and (осветительная аппаратура). Usually he works close to the Mechanical Specialist providing routine maintenance on motors and other devices.
8. Modern tunnels are equipped with electronic/ITS equipment including fire alarm systems, (система видеонаблюдения), heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) control systems, programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and monitoring system, environmental control systems, etc. These systems require authorized personnel with specialized skills and training.

11. Seismic forces may cause noticeable damage of functional systems. Large amount of water can penetrate the tunnel through propagated cracks or loose joints. The specialists may temporarily close the tunnel until they diminish the earthquake aftershocks, remove all debris and assess the damage. If the (целостность конструкции) or functioning systems are uncertain, the tunnel must remain closed until geotechnical, structural, electrical, and mechanical engineers complete thorough tunnel assessments.
