ShareTake a look underneath and behind the scenes of this most famous of English rivers.
The Mersey Tunnel Tour has amazed visitors since 1934. Thousands make their underwater journey through this engineering tour de force every day – but to really understand how the Queensway Tunnel works, you need to wrap up warm, don your high visibility jacket and venture under the scenes.
Going beneath the city, you will walk down to the depths of the city, dropping into the Tunnel Control Room where eagle-eyed experts monitor the volume and safety of four lanes of traffic, right around the clock.
From here it’s onto somewhere that few tunnel users will ever get to see. As well as giving you a good insight into the tunnel’s history, you’ll also get a unique tour of the George’s Dock ventilation building and witness engineering masterpiece first hand.
