Default Do you live above a tube tunnel?

Any student from Queen Mary College from the 80s will possibly recall
the same as myself, that when you were taking exams in the 'Great
Hall', that every 2 minutes or so a tube train would rumble underneath
- District Line, I would hazard a guess. Put me off the first few
times, I can tell you !


Some residents who live above the proposed line of the Crossrail tunnels
are concerned about possible noise and vibration in their homes when the
trains are running. Is there anyone on utl who lives or works directly
above an existing tube (not sub-surface) tunnel? If so, do you experience
any noise and vibration?

Similarly, have you had any cracks and subsidence? There was a report in
March 2002 that the land above the line of the JLE had sunk by the odd
centimetre.
