Posted By: fish5133 Fire in Tunnel - 28th Dec 2012 2:43pm
Just took a call from the missus saying there is a fire in one of the tunnells and they are being evacuated by the fire brigade. Got the impression they are turning thier vehicle around at the Liverpool end and having to make their way to the other tunnel.
just picked this off news so she may have her tunnels mixed up

Live travel
Kingsway (Wallasey Tunnel) both ways closed due to vehicle fire from A59 Scotland Road (Liverpool City Centre) to Toll Booths. Emergency Services are on the scene dealing with the incident. Diversion: Via the Queensway (Birkenhead) Tunnel

Wondered what all the smoke was coming from Liverpool. Knew it was something to do with the tunnels. So saw this on the Live traffic.

Sitting here watching it morbidly.

Was wondering what it was, pure black smoke coming from what looked like a block of flats but it must of been ventilation shaft.

Fires out now.
