The invention discloses a tunnel lighting arrangement system, wherein, a tunnel is internally provided with an inlet section, a transition section, a middle section and an outlet section; and left side-wall lighting sets and / or right side-wall lighting sets are arranged on the inlet section, the transition section, the middle section and the outlet section. The tunnel lighting system is characterized in that the distance between the left side-wall lighting sets and the right side-wall lighting sets and a road surface is 2.5m-3.5m; and left light environmental lighting sets and / or right light environmental lighting sets are arranged at the inlet section. The tunnel lighting arrangement system has the obvious effects of convenient construction and reformation, rationally arranging the installation position of an illuminating lamp, achieving convenient replacement and maintenance of the lighting sets, increasing the use ratio of the tunnel lighting sets, lowering the installation position of the lighting sets, guaranteeing lighting on an escape route through the lighting sets under heavy smoke, shortening the distance for illuminating ground by the lighting sets, strengthening ground illumination, reducing power of the illuminating lamp, and lowering energy consumption.
