The Rotherhithe Tunnel is a road tunnel crossing beneath the River Thames in East London.

It connects the Ratcliff district of Limehouse in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets north of the river to Rotherhithe in the London Borough of Southwark south of the river.

Designed by Sir Maurice Fitzmaurice, the Engineer to the London County Council, the tunnel's construction was authorised by the Thames Tunnel ( Rotherhithe and Ratcliff ) Act of 1900 despite considerable opposition from local residents, nearly 3, 000 of whom were displaced by the tunnel works.

Like many other London tunnels and bridges, the Rotherhithe Tunnel now carries far more traffic than it was designed for.
