- The 9.02 km long tunnel connects Manali to Lahaul-Spiti valley .An altitude of 30
00 metres (10,000 feet) from the Mean Sea Level (MSL). - It reduces the road distance by 46 km between Manali and Leh and the time by about four to five hours.
- It is 10.5-metre wide and has a 3.6 x 2.25 metres fire-proof emergency egress tunnel built into the main tunnel itself.
- It is horseshoe-shaped, single tube double lane tunnel with a roadway of 8 metres.
- If any fire incident happens so first thing is how the people trapped are to be rescued. For that there is an entry at every 500 metres.
- Atal Tunnel has been designed for traffic density of 3000 cars per day and 1,500 trucks per day with max speed of 80 km/hr.
- Telephone connections at every 150 metres for emergency communication, fire hydrant mechanisms at every 60 Metres.
- Auto incident detection system with CCTV cameras at every 250 metres, air quality monitoring at every one Km, evacuation lighting/exit signs .
- There are evacuation lighting and exit signs at every 25 metres and broadcasting system throughout the stretch.

IRNSS is an independent regional navigation satellite system being developed by India. It is designed to provide accurate position information service to users in India as well as the region extending up to 1500 km from its boundary, which is its primary service area. An Extended Service Area lies between primary service area and area enclosed by the rectangle from Latitude 30 deg South to 50 deg North, Longitude 30 deg East to 130 deg East. IRNSS will provide two types of services, namely, Standard Positioning Service (SPS) which is provided to all the users and Restricted Service (RS), which is an encrypted service provided only to the authorised users. The IRNSS System is expected to provide a position accuracy of better than 20 m in the primary service area. Some applications of IRNSS are: Terrestrial, Aerial and Marine Navigation Disaster Management Vehicle tracking and fleet management Integration with mobile phones Precise Timing Mapping and Geodetic data capture Terrestrial nav
