Tips

Both foot tunnels are open 24 hours daily.
There are stairs and lifts at each entrance.

The Greenwich and Woolwich Foot Tunnels were originally built in 1902 and 1912 respectively. The purpose of the tunnels was to provide reliable all-weather access by local residents to the London shipyards and docks on the north side of the Thames.

Both foot tunnels were built by the former London County Council.
