I guess a head-on crash and subsequent fire/smoke is rather more
dangerous in a tunnel under the Thames than on the average street.

Also, bi-directional tunnels fill with pollution, whereas one-way traffic
tends to pull the fumes through.

It's about time they did something about Rotherhithe Tunnel, I think every
trip through there shortens your life by more than the time you save by
using it.
