I,ve just noticed that all of the Jam Cams, provided by BBC

covering my area of east London - the Isle of Dogs and Blackwall
Tunnel (right through to the A2) - have been 'removed due to a

fault'. Most of these cams have been kaputt for years but you
would
get the occasional day when you could check the tunnel northern
approach.

If it's any consolation, all the jamcams in the Hammersmith area
have also been removed from the BBC site, just at the time when it
would be useful to see the effects of the Hammersmith Flyover
closure.
They also get switched off during demonstrations etc. in London.
The
page says Transport for London has turned them off for "operational
reasons". Why they can't just put that the truth - that the police
asked for them to be turned off - beats me.

That doesn't surprise me, but I can't remember the last time there
was any 'civil disobediance' at the Blackwall Tunnel.
