1981 - April 2nd 1981 The Rotherhithe Tunnel reopens The 73 year old Rotherhithe tunnel under the Thames reopened today following an eight month facelift during which the Greater London Council has had ultra-modern ventilation and lighting installed at a cost of 3 million. The tunnel was originally constructed for horse drawn traffic, so to mark the reopening Sir Horace Cutler, leader of the GLC, officially opened it by riding through it in a coach and horses.
