Norwegian term or phrase: riggkontor
In this case, not at sea but in a tunnel, being the location for warning system equipment. I've seen a few references to the term used at job sites. Can this be "equipment room" or "control room" or the like in this context?

Explanation:
This is the usual term in UK although the building may also be used as the siteworkers' changing room/canteen, a store and -in your context- the warning system location.
Google 'riggkontor' and you will get several results which give detail.
Two examples in my references.
