(1): Main tunnel. 11-11.4 metres wide. Horseshoe shape shown, but a circular cross section was used in areas with difficult geology.
(2): Service tunnel. 4-5 metres wide. Sprayed concrete thickness 0.12-0.15 m. Horizontally, the service tunnel is located 30 m away from the main tunnel (centrelines)
(3): Pilot tunnel. 3.6-5 metres wide. Sprayed concrete thickness 0.12-0.15 m. The depth of the pilot tunnel varies between 0 and 118 metres below the floor of the service tunnel. In the middle of the Tsugaru Strait the pilot tunnel was not constructed. Horizontally, the pilot tunnel is located 15 m from both the service and main tunnels (centrelines) - in between.
(4): Connecting galley. Located at intervals of approximately 600m.
