The freshwater tunnel has built around it adjacent maintenance tunnels that allow workers to access various parts of the tunnel, including tunnel B3/C3 and [[Hallway|tunnel B2]] that are around 9 km long each and connect the two major facilities together, the latter spawned [[Mörkö|various myths]] around it and aroused fear among workers, advising not to use it.

At least one part of the tunnels extends under the [[Metroride|Ampstrand Line]], whick [[Markku Siltanen|Mark]] falls into after that part of the metro line collapsed.


The freshwater tunnel itself is around 14,5 km long and parts of it were bored through underground caves, in which during the initial construction a species of [[Stalburg Mushroom Virus#Green Mushrooms|green glowing mushrooms]] was discovered, which thanks to the water reach of the tunnel, had spread to other parts of [[Stalburg]]. The tunnel was conceived in the first half of the 20th century after the second world war, as a response to a lack of potable water in the city due to pollution, and was constructed in under a decade, being the biggest tunneling project in the city to that date.
