Bárbula Tunnel (Spanish: Túnel de Bárbula) is a railway tunnel under construction in Venezuela. The tunnel has a length of 7.8 km (4.8 mi), which makes it the longest in South America. Completion of the project was scheduled for 2010,[1] but it has been delayed.

The tunnel takes its name from Bárbula, a locality in Naguanagua Municipality. It is part of a line between the sea port city of Puerto Cabello, Carabobo State, and the crossroads town of La Encrucijada (Venezuela), Aragua State.
