Overview
A new tunnel is being built under the Thames, linking Silvertown to the Greenwich Peninsula in east London. It'll help to reduce congestion at the Blackwall Tunnel, deliver faster and more reliable journeys, improve air quality and public transport links with more cross-river bus services, and enable more cycle journeys.

Scope
Our part in this huge project included wiring the main SWA for feeder pillars supplying all traffic management, CCTV, gantries throughout the tunnel as well as on entry and exits, barrier systems and more, in and around the new tunnel on both sides of the river. This included pulling cable over extended distances and testing on completion.
