Work Starts On Crossrail’s Victoria Dock Portal

I went and had a look at this important work earlier in the week.

The Victoria Dock Portal will give access to a short length of tunnel connecting this part of Crossrail to the site at the Limmo Peninsular.

As the tunnel will be bored from Limmo to Victoria Dock and the site is alongside the DLR and overlooked by the bridge at Royal Victoria station, you might get a chance to view the tunnelling machine as it emerges.

There is a very good time-lapse video of the construction here.

About This Blog

What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.

But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.

And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.
