Ljubljana/Kranj, 11 August - Construction company SCT said on Monday that the incident with the fire-retardant plaster peeling off the ceiling of the Sentvid Tunnel could have been prevented if the national motorway company DARS had allowed for a two-week monitoring of the recently opened motorway tunnel.
