The most Swiss thing I can think of is that we clean our tunnels. Apparently, we have been cleaning our tunnels for over 50 years. Supposedly, it's done for safety (clean means bright and bright is safer than dark), but the real reason is that we feel that clean tunnels are just better than dirty tunnels.

@anymouse_404 @reichenstein they close the vitkov pedestrian tunnel every half a year or so for the entire night for a fairly deep cleaning

@pony @reichenstein Dunno about that, but the ones for cars just get pressure-washed

@anymouse_404 @pony @reichenstein

we have a similar device in the UK - not as sophisticated as the Swiss one and I'm not sure how often the tunnels actually get cleaned, but it does get done every so often..
