The Prado-Carénage Tunnel is Marseille's 2,500-meter-long underground traffic artery, linking the city's southern districts with the eastern freeway, the city center and, to the north via the old port tunnel, the coastal freeway. It was opened to traffic in 1993. This tunnel reuses a former railway tunnel and has been extended by the Louis-Rège tunnel.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

Le Tunnel Prado-Carénage est un axe de circulation souterrain de Marseille long de 2 500 mètres, reliant les quartiers sud de la ville et l'autoroute Est, au centre ville, et, au nord via le tunnel du vieux port, l'autoroute du littoral. Il a été ouvert à la circulation en 1993. Ce tunnel réutilise un ancien tunnel ferroviaire et a été prolongé par le tunnel Louis-Rège.
