Thats the "mini " tunnel in Galley common, outside Nuneaton under the Birmingham rail line. Bit longer than a rail underbridge , but barely so. 30 limit, but low roof, no cameras, but there's a T junction not far beyond the end, and coming the otherway, sighting is poor onto a single track road with short sighted locals.

Is that Park Lane in Galley Common? As the height restrictions seem to be a bit higher than on that image on Google Streetview now.
Google have been making changes to Maps over the years to monetise them, so it could well be that it has broken the link to this map, if it wasn't updated.

Something about the idea of going out to find tunnels made me laugh. Mind you I live in Switzerland where we're drowning in tunnels - in particular some horrible 80 km/h bidirectional long tunnels without separating barriers. I almost wish the satnav would warn me about routes with long tunnels. Different countries different problems.

Nowhere near Nuneaton! It's near Kirkintilloch, passing under the Forth and Clyde Canal.Halmyre said:
