About

Are the tunnel lifts working today? Check lift status for the Greenwich and Woolwich foot tunnels before you set off. Thames Foot Tunnels reads the Royal Borough of Greenwich's public status page and shows the north and south lifts separately. Switch between Greenwich (Cutty Sark / Island Gardens) and Woolwich (Royal Arsenal / North Woolwich). Get notified when background checks detect a change, glance at a Home Screen widget, or check on your Apple Watch. Features: • Council lift status for both tunnels, with a last-checked time. • Optional lift-change notifications when background checks detect a change. Delivery depends on iOS background scheduling. • Siri and Shortcuts checks for both tunnels together or one at a time. • Community observations when someone finds different conditions on the ground. • Home Screen widgets and an Apple Watch app and widgets. • Saved status when you're offline, clearly marked when it may be out of date. • Fun facts and history from both tunnels. For Siri, say “Use Thames Foot Tunnels to check Woolwich lifts” or “Use Thames Foot Tunnels to check both tunnels”. Useful for wheelchair users, parents with pushchairs, cyclists walking their bikes and anyone who would rather avoid an unexpected climb. Council information and community observations can be out of date. Lift status does not establish whether the tunnel itself is open. Free, with optional tips. No ads or tracking. No app account is needed; sending community reports requires iCloud availability.

September 29, 2026

This update improves lift-status reliability: • Fixed excessive notifications caused by outdated council status pages. • Planned maintenance notices now take priority during the announced closure dates. • Fixed an issue that prevented community reports from loading. • Simplified the message shown when community reports are temporarily unavailable. Sorry for the excessive lift-status notifications, and thank you for your patience.
