The Wallasey Tunnel was closed by police after a dog was seen "strolling" around inside.
Mersey Tunnels Police and Merseyside Police were called to the Wallasey Tunnel on Tuesday, April 25 at around 12.15pm following reports of an animal spotted running in the carriageway. Staff were at the scene a short time later and blocked access to the tunnel on the Liverpool side.
Merseytravel confirmed a dog was running freely inside and was later caught by staff safe and well. Traffic was then released with little disruption.
