The Plasina Tunnel is located between Žuta Lokva and Ličko Lešće. It is located between Otočac and Perušić interchanges of the Croatian A1 motorway.[1]
Both tunnel tubes, 2,300 metres (7,500 ft) long, were completed simultaneously. The northern portal of the tunnel is located at 532 m.a.s.l., while the southern one is at 547 m.a.s.l. Excavation of the tunnel had been completed by January 2004. In 2006, the tunnel was declared to be among the top three safest tunnels in Europe by EuroTAP.[2][3]
