Entering the tunnel since 2006 only in the summer is with traffic lights. Off-season residents don't use traffic lights, they don't want wait. Inside the tunnel are 2 extended places for about 3 cars, where cars can wait and and pass each other. Traffic lights on both sides of the tunnel are on Islanders rare, it's only one on the Hvar.
Say that the tunnel Pitve did Titus soldiers sometimes 50-60 years. He was built because of the construction airport for missiles and fighters on the neighboring small uninhabited island Scedro. What is the truth nobody can tells us today.
The tunnel was maden by hands by the military with compressors and picks in hand.

Sometimes is raining long time but within the tunnel is completely dry and in turn, sometimes it is sufficient when the rain shor time and if they exceed the level siphoning type, water is pouring with rain and flooded the tunnel is all one big splash.

Vstup do tunela je az od roku 2006 v letnej sezone riadeny semaforom. Mimo sezony domaci obyvatelia semafor nepouzivaju, nechce sa im cakat. Vnutri tunela su 2 rozsirene miesta asi na 3 auta, kde sa pri strete vozidiel pockaju a obidu. Semafory na oboch stranach tunela su ostrovanom vzacne, su totiz jedine na celom Hvare.
Vravi sa, ze tunel Pitve robili Titovi vojaci niekedy v 50-60 rokoch. Bol robeny z dovodu planovanej vystavby raketodromu ( letisko pre rakety, stihacky ) na susednom malom neobyvanom ostrove Scedro. Co je na tom pravdy nam dnes uz asi nikto nepovie.
Tunel bol robeny rucne. Hlbila ho armada s kompresormi a zbijackami v rukach.
Nad tunelom je sustava jaskyn, ktore funguju na principe sifonu. Niekedy prsi dlho ale vnutri tunela je uplne sucho a zasa inokedy staci, ze zaprsi malo a ak to presiahne uroven sifonu, voda sa leje a tunel je cely zaplaveny jednou velkou mlakou.
Klimaticke podmienky vo vnutri tunela su idealne na skladovanie vina. To vyuzil miestny velkopodnikatel a v tuneli ma urobeny tajny sklad na uchovavanie barikoveho vina.
HR: Kroz tunel mogu proc samo osobna vozila I manja teretna vozila. Autobuse I velika teretna vozila kroz njega proci nemogu.
Ulaz u tunel je tek od 2006 godine u ljetnoj sezoni rijesen semaforima. Izvan sezone domaci stanovnici semafor nekoriste, jer im se neda cekati. Unutra u tunelu ima dva prosirenja, za otprilike tri auta, gdje se mogu mimoic. Semafore na obe strane tunela su otocanima drage, jer su jedine na cijelom otoku Hvaru.
Govori se, da je tunel Pitve radila Titova vojska u 50-60 godinama. Napravljen je bio iz razloga planirane izgradnje aerodroma za vojne rakete na malom nenaseljenom otoku scedro. Sta je istine u ovom vise nezna nitko reci. Tunel je bio pravljen rucno, pravila ga je vojska sa kompresorima u ruci.
Iznad tunela je sistem spilja, koje funkcioniraju na bazi sifona.Nekad pada kisa cijele dane a unutra u tunelu je suho, a nekad je dosta da padne malo, voda u sistemu prode nivo sifona, pusti vodu a cijeli tunel je pun vode.
Klima unutra u tunelu je idealna za cuvanje vina. To je iskoristio jedan otocki velikoproizvodac I u tunelu je napravio prostor za cuvanje barik vina.
