Soraluzen egin diren tunelek hiru erabilera mota izan dute, historiaren hiru momentu desberdinetan eginak: trenbidearenak, urarenak eta autobidearenak.

Urte batzuk geroago, 1910 hamarkadan, Txurrukenen parean zegoen trazadura zuzendu zituzten, eta horretarako Arkaitzeko tunela zabaldu zuten. Gaur egun oraindik gordetzen da, baina seguritateagatik bi ertzetan itxita dago.
Eibar gero eta handiago egiten ari zela, XX mende hasieran ur hornidura bermatzea behar zen. Irtenbideren bat Sagar-errekako urak erabiltzea izan zen. Horrerarako presa bat egin zuten Sagar-errekan, eta tunelaren]] bidez ura Eibarra eruan.
