Mersey Tunnels Recovery
What to do in the event of a breakdown or accident:
If you need to evacuate the tunnel
Put your hazard lights on as soon as you notice a problem.Pull over to the side of the road as far as you can and stop.
Turn off your engine.
You and your passengers should leave the vehicle and walk to a safe place, but take care with the passing traffic.
The safety refuge places are shown on our diagram below for both Queensway (Birkenhead) and Kingsway (Wallasey) Tunnels and are marked with a green man running sign.
The safety refuges are all interlinked and are built below the road deck. Each refuge has a communications box which links to the Tunnels Police.
If you have entered any of the Tunnel safety refuges, as soon as the door opens, an alarm is triggered at Tunnel Police HQ on the first floor of George’s Dock Building in Liverpool.
The screen in the communications box will be activated and a Police Officer will talk to you to give you help and advice.
The Tunnel Police are fully trained in first aid and also fire fighting procedures.
