Woolwich ferry suspended due to technical issues
There’s no service on the Woolwich ferry this afternoon due to “technical issues” according to Transport for London.
There’s the usual miles of southbound traffic right now heading back from Falconwood to Greenwich along the A2 and A102 after the Blackwall and Silvertown tunnels now converge on the same road.
If on foot in Woolwich the lifts are also out at Woolwich foot tunnel, with the south lift not operational now since 21st August 2022.
Since Silvertown tunnel opened and tolls were applied both to Blackwall and Silvertown tunnels many more vehicles have headed to the ferry – which remains free.
That however has meant long queues with traffic occasionally blocking the adjacent roundabout slowing traffic including numerous bus routes.
