TUNNEL VISION: Episode 1 - Cleaning up the Thames in Blackfriars, London

[@paulkearney4565]

As a building engineer I'm very impressed with the project and the team. Great video, very informative!! 👏👌

[@Kungpula]

Great productionwork, worthy of the Tideway project. I have been following this channel for about a year. I love the new approach!

[@willhammond4702]

This is a fantastic way to get knowledge out there. A clean River Thames is a great thing. Looking forward to keeping up with the progress. Really good video 👍🏻

[@tonygriffiths2485]

I walk about three times a week along the Thames at Hampton court. During the summer, many people swim in the river there. I have told some that they are swimming in a sewer, but to no avail. I definately wouldn't myself though. Maybe its not so bad there as it must be around the central part of London. hope so for their sake. Hopefully when the work is finished there will be Salmon swimming up the Thames again soon after. Thanks to all those who are doing the business on Tideway, you are doing a fantastic job :)

This is so good

[@jackchild]

Oh yes mate really good!

[@CrabappleKing]

@@jackchild shut it get back to work

[@99pottere]

Great work, liked the diagrams and flashbacks to old photographs of the fleet

[@peterpowis4145]

yes i really enjoyed that!

[@allanburdge1421]

Can we see more of the intricate stuff like steel fixing lining and spray and a little about the logistics using the river

[@peterpowis4145]

Thanks for the more in-depth info about the project! I'd like to see more about the TBMs Annie and Selina. Have they started boring yet? And how far away is Ursula from completing her journey?

[@robieb0i]

Selina should be setting off in the next 2-3 months

[@brianwaite3292]

Much better than the previous format, which was jumpy and too fast to follow for overall progress updates. Did like the variety of speakers and their perspective, but overall enjoyed this better.

[@arcadealchemist]

the tideway could be a hydro powerplant, was that never discussed? if the river bed can be SCRAPPED for trash too that would be awesome.

[@garykillington4172]

I go to these sites for work

Dry dock Dock side River fleet

[@heymikey1981]

Wow, that lad is very good looking

[@suburbia2050]

we come here for the machines

[@metalmicky]

When it’s finished you will be able to swim in the Thames instead of just going through the motions .

[@kjcsomerville]

😄

[@Nick_80599]

The current is too strong, its a very dangerous river to swim in especially beyond Richmond

[@theoatob2555]

No mention of Thames Water constantly breaking the law? In Germany excess sewage is tanked up and processed at times of low demand... Not a great if all you care about it getting the fattest bonus you can.

[@anml4676]

It would be a whole lot better without the music.

[@peterfeltham5612]

As usual,all the TBMs are imported from europe.

[@philrabe910]

You guys just keep building out these massive multi billion pound infrastructure projects- while our president's trillion dollar meant-to-soften-the-tariff-blow has never come to pass and our steel industry is suffering... Sigh.

[@peterfeltham5612]

Phil,At least you still have a steel industry,in Britain it has all but gone,and what little is left is foreign owned.
