The suppression of tunnel fires can be achieved by using a high flow inert gas generator like the Steamexfire 

The Steamexfire is an inert gas generator, suitable for inertising of enclosed spaces, for example a tunnel.
This inertisation device that produces a mixture of combustion products with water vapour and steam, with a minimum content of oxygen at a temperature of approx. 80° to 90° Celsius. In simple words, it’s a generator that produces very large quantities of inert gas.

The Inert Steamexfire takes away two of the three elements of the fire: oxygen and heat.
Steamexfire systems can suppress fires in enclosed environments like:
  • Coal mines.
  • Container ships.
  • Tunnels.
  • Warehouses.
  • Etc.
