# Túnel El Melón - **Website:** - **Primary alias:** `tunelelmelon.cl` ## Description El Melón Tunnel, inaugurated on September 13, 1995, is a pioneering infrastructure project in Chile, marking the first facility built and operated under the Public Works Concession System. This tunnel significantly enhanced the connectivity of Route 5 Norte, offering a safer and more efficient alternative to the previously used La Cuesta El Melón route, which posed various safety risks due to its inadequate infrastructure. El Melón provides various services, including a toll collection system, which users can pay through a daily pass or account balance. The company emphasizes safety by strictly prohibiting pedestrian traffic, overtaking, cycling, and the presence of animals or flammable materials within the tunnel. Customers can easily access support through their call center at 600 712 5000 for inquiries regarding toll payments, routes, and emergency assistance. Committed to user safety and convenience, El Melón Tunnel continues to be a crucial infrastructure asset for road travelers in the region. ## Industries - ✈️ Travel and Tourism - ✈️ Ground Transportation _(under Travel and Tourism)_ - 🏭 Heavy Industry and Engineering - 🏭 Construction and Maintenance _(under Heavy Industry and Engineering)_ ## Links - [twitter](https://twitter.com/tunelmelon) ## Logos & icons - logo _(primary)_ — PNG, SVG — [download](https://cdn.brandfetch.io/idmd1ujVbN/w/820/h/605/theme/light/logo.png?c=1bxid64Mup7aczewSAYMX&t=1728784538967) - icon _(primary)_ — JPEG — [download](https://cdn.brandfetch.io/idmd1ujVbN/w/387/h/387/theme/dark/icon.jpeg?c=1bxid64Mup7aczewSAYMX&t=1728784539094) ## Colors | Name | Hex | Theme | | --- | --- | --- | | Atlantis | #8fc73e | accent | | Dallas | #7a5125 | dark | | Whiskey | #d8af6f | light | ## Fonts - Khand — asset _(google)_ - Khand — asset _(google)_ ## Imagery - banner _(primary)_ — JPEG — [download](https://cdn.brandfetch.io/idmd1ujVbN/w/1500/h/500/idGruEZFMf.jpeg?c=1bxid64Mup7aczewSAYMX&t=1728784538673) --- _Source: _ _See [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) for a full list of agent-readable pages, and [/auth.md](/auth.md) for how agents authenticate._
