Heroes Tunnel (formerly West Rock Tunnel) is a 1200-foot-long twin-tube tunnel carrying Route 15 (Wilbur Cross Parkway) through West Rock Ridge in New Haven Connecticut. Opened in 1949 it was said to be the only vehicular tunnel to pass beneath a land feature in Connecticut and all of New England. However this statement is not accurate as there are other vehicular tunnels in New England.
