Upriver Tunnel

The Upriver Tunnel was constructed in 1554, connecting Tighsley and Walsing in southern Norrilund. The tunnel is paved with tarmac, and has lanes for traffic in both directions. Though well patrolled by policemen, the Upriver Tunnel is a dark, frightening, and very dangerous area of the city. Perpetual darkness is broken up by the occasional gas lamp, sound is amplified, reflected, and quickly can become disorienting. The place is characterised by two tunnels, separated by a series of archways and columns where the gas lanterns are
positioned. Smaller walkways along that middle section keep foot traffic out of the path of the wagons and carriages moving through the tunnel. 
Right now, the tunnel is a popular place for people needing to get out of the cold and the elements. Crime amongst these troglodytes is high, and the unsuspecting traveler can find themselves in sudden danger here, as there are many dark areas in the tunnel where miscreants can lie in wait for the unsuspecting. There is a regular police patrol through the tunnel, but muggings and murders still take place.
