The TI2 Tunnel, excavated to a precision of just 6 millimetres, is 2648 metres long and links the SPS to Point 2 of the LEP/LHC ring.
TI2 will have an important role to play even before the LHC starts up in 2006, since it is along this tunnel that the new accelerator's over 1300 main dipole magnets will be transported into the ring.
