Tim

Yeah i know the height limit and a Giga space is about 13ft but comfirmation from somebody who has done it would be handy 
well it used to be higher but i don’t no if they have put anything physical to restrict it to 13ft but i no if your over the height will flash up over height
Tim take a look on google about blackwall tunnel height change ,read the emails to Tfl by mr Fairchild it’s quite interesting .

Perish the thought that they might actually commit to a definitive answer

I see plenty of Eastern european trucks running northbound through the tunnel, and most of their kit is new. I would have thought if a Magnum gets through OK then a gigaspace ought to. Listed height for a Merc gigaspace with out air deflector is 3298mm , that about 10 foot 10 inches…according to …

But the euro kit runs on smaller wheels so the overall cab height is lower than a UK spec

This can’t be right a rest cab erf is 11’4 to the air stack .
You need spec savers it says 3928!
If you want to check out the traffic at the Blackwall tunnel there are a couple of live streaming cameras here livetrafficlondon.com/
Why don’t you measured it TB, if it’s under 13ft your ok, If it’s over 13ft your not ok-‘Simples’

It aint the truck i drive, i drive a mega space and go through it no probs was just asking if anybody on here had been through in one.
I’m asking for my mate!
I know my TGX is 13’2" to the top of the deflector, so that doesn’t fit, even if it did the trailer wouldn’t fit. Lol.
