Seizing a rare opportunity to take a closer look at this tunnel which is of course full of traffic 364 days of the year but was closed on New Year's Eve. I've always been fond of the tunnel - and if you get the chance it's a lot of fun to cycle through!
Now for a bit of history:
Also known as the Kingsway Underpass, this tunnel links Waterloo Bridge with High Holborn. Opened in 1964 it occupies part of the space of the original Kingsway Tramway Subway, which was in service from 1906 until 1952 when London's tram network was closed down. Much of the rest of the tram subway still lies abandoned, but isn't accessible from this tunnel despite surrounding it.

Chandannagar, formerly known as Chandernagore (Chôndonnôgor, French: Chandernagor) is a small city and former French colony located 30 kilometers (19 mi) north of Kolkata, in West Bengal, India. It is head quarters of a subdivision in Hooghly District. It is one of the 6 municipal corporations in West Bengal. It is a part of the area covered by Kolkata Metropolitan Development Authority. Located on the Hooghly River, the city has been able to maintain a separate identity different from all other cities and abide by her own characteristics. The total area is a meager 19 square kilometers (7.3 sq mi) having a population of over 150,000. Chandannagar is connected to Kolkata by railway, roadways and river and it takes about an hour to reach there by car.
India became independent of Britain in 1947, and in June 1948 the French Government held a plebiscite which found that 97% of Chandannagar's residents wished to become part of India. In May 1950, the French allowed the Indian government to assume de facto control over Chandannagar, officially ceding the city to India on 2 February 1951. De jure transfer took place on 9 June 1952. On 2 October 1955 Chandannagar was integrated into West Bengal state. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chandannagar
