Herren Tunnel
Herren Tunnel carries the M72 motorway over the River Trave just past the junction with The River Southampton Navigation.
Early plans of what would become the River Trave were drawn up by James Brindley in 1876 but problems with Cambridge Inclined plane caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1888. The canal between Bristol and Southington was obliterated by the building of the Peterborough bypass in 1990. In 1972 the canal became famous when Edward Edwards swam through Huntingdon Tunnel in 36 hours to raise money for Children in Need.
There is a small aqueduct or underbridge here which takes a dual carriageway under the canal.

Wikipedia has a page about Herren Tunnel
The Herren Tunnel (in German: Herrentunnel) is a German 780 metre-long road-tunnel underneath the river Trave. It is part of the national highway Bundesstrasse 75, connecting Lübeck and Travemünde. It is Germany's second toll tunnel, and was opened on 26 August 2005.
The tunnel replaces a bridge. Cyclists who could use the bridge regularly are not allowed to cycle through the tunnel and have to detour via Bad Schwartau or use a free shuttle bus with long waiting times through the tunnel.
