Description	The findings are related to the relation between underground works and the environment, focusing in the advantages of underground construction compared to the cutting solution, and the role of social, economical and legislative framework. The tunnelling associations of the countries participating in the survey hold varying opinions about the interrelations between underground works and the environment, although the totality consider that the increasing environmental sensitivity and legislation will have a positive influence on the future development of underground works. The future of the tunnels and its use are considered under the high priority of the aesthetic aspects requirements, the environment integration, the comfort of its use, and the safety. The experience of the construction of the first tunnels has shown that the rock masses where the tunnels are driven are fairly competent and the local failures or faults do not affect strongly the excavation performance.
