The tunnel complex 'Blanka' forms part of the city of Prague ring road system. It runs under a heavily urbanized environment right on the edge of the historic centre of Prague.

It stretches from Brusnice - to the west of the Prague Castle area - to the municipal district of Troja in the northeast, thus, connecting the right and left banks of the Vltava River. The tunnel complex forms part of the inner-city ring road and is directly connected to the system of tunnels to the south (Strahovský a Mrázovka) and Břevnovská radial road (connecting the city centre with the Prague Airport).

On the right bank of the Vltava River, the tunnel connects to the Prosecká radial road (exit road to the north) and in the future should also connect to the final eastern stretch of the inner-city circular road. The intersections have been built as part of the project, so there is currently no obstacle to the full operation of the tunnel complex, even though the circular road has not been completed.
