Tideway has launched a new YouTube series on the construction of the new super sewer tunnel for London.
The new YouTube series 'Tunnel Vision' will take viewers behind the scenes project to take a closer look at the two dozen construction sites that make up the project to build the 25 km tunnel to stop sewage pollution in the River Thames,.
Episode one showcases Blackfriars, one of the most important sites on the Tideway project, and hears from engineers on site as the innovative ‘floated culvert’ manoeuvre took place.
The show features tunnel boring machines, exploring their history, development and their modern-day use on similar projects.
Tideway also took to the streets to see if Londoners know just how much sewage spills into the River Thames each year – and whether anyone had heard of Tideway.
Work on the super sewer, which will run from Acton in west London to Stratford in east London, started in 2016. Nearly 19km of tunnel has now been constructed.
