Queensbury residents want to save this tunnel

Available for over a year

Over 100 people gathered around Queensbury Tunnel in protest of the Government’s decision to fill it in. Queensbury Tunnel Society (QTS) want the space to become a greenway, or shared-use path, linking Bradford to Calderdale. It was said by Naz Shah, MP for Bradford West, that “It will cost us less than £7 million to restore it, to make it for the benefit of the local people. I think it’s a short-sighted decision to try and close this.”
