I would think the cameras are they to protect the tunnel itself. Its a major road into East London that needs to be open at all times. If the speed limit is slower then there should be less crashes and less closure time fixing the tunnel.
Also the tunnel is under the Limehouse Basin maybe they don't want it to leak?
Why is the Rotherhide tunnel only 20mph speed limit, cause its tight as sardines in there!
