The Woolwich Tunnel: The Tunnel London Never Talks About

London spent two point two billion pounds on a new river crossing in 2025. A few hundred metres away, a free, century-old pedestrian tunnel sits with a broken lift nobody will pay to fix. This is the story of the Woolwich Foot Tunnel, the overlooked sibling of the Greenwich Foot Tunnel, built in 1912 for dock workers who needed a reliable way across the Thames and quietly serving Londoners ever since, without fame, without tourists, and without anyone taking responsibility for its future.
