About Blackwall Tunnel

The Blackwall Tunnel is a pair of road tunnels underneath the River Thames in east London, England, linking the London Borough of Tower Hamlets with the Royal Borough of Greenwich, and part of the A102 road. The northern portal lies just south of the East India Dock Road (A13) in Blackwall; the southern entrances are just south of The O2 on the Greenwich Peninsula. The road is managed by Transport for London (TfL).

On the show

The Blackwall Tunnel is a very, very trafficy tunnel in London. It has to shut down, I think 700 times a year — it gets shut down because the traffic just gets too crazy.
