Thames Tunnel - Isambard Kingdom Brunel Home Timeline Topics Is - Children's Novel Reviews Teacher resources News Weblinks Thames Tunnel The Thames Tunnel, from Wapping to Rotherhithe was the first tunnel under a river anywhere in the world. It was designed by Marc Brunel (Isambard's father) using a revolutionary tunnel shield which he invented, comprising 36 cells in which a workman was engaged working independently of the others. Propulsion for the device was a screw which crush the device forward in 114mm/4.5in steps(the width of a brick). The operation was started in 1825 and was halted a number of times when the river splash in and flooded the workings. Isambard Brunel was put in tuition of operations, and at one time nearly lost his life in a flood. In November 1827 Marc’s son, Isambard Kingdom Brunel, organised a lavish underwater refection in the tunnel – to help convince people that it was safe. But the stoppages put the scheme's finances under severe strain. At one point the operation was halted for seven years and the tunnel bricked up. When it was then started a much larger shield was used to imbricate the 120m/400ft of tunnel once constructed. At its lowest point construction took place only 4m/14ft unelevated the river bed. The Thames tunnel was sooner opened in 1843. It was of an horseshoe construction with a height of 7m/23ft and width of 11m/37ft. It had a total length of 406m/1,506ft. In the first four months increasingly than a million people passed through the long awaited tunnel. Although originally designed as a foot tunnel, it was sooner sold to the railways and became part of the London Underground system in 1865, a role it still performs today nearly 150 years later. In the novel 'Is', Isabel Williams takes her friend Robert to see the Thames Tunnel.
