London Leake Street Tunnel Art Graffiti #82

            Leake Street, aka Banksy Tunnel, is a road tunnel in Lambeth, London where graffiti and street art is allowed. Though such art is illegal in the UK, certain areas have a special privilege to display wall art.

The length of the street street is about 300 metres / 328 feet of which about 200 metres / 218 yards long is devoted to the street art. It is under Waterloo station. This means the length of all the artwork is about 400 metres / 436 yards which is about a quarter of a mile.

The art was first created for the Cans Festival in May 2008 which was organised by the secret painter Banksy. The festival was repeated in August the same year over the Bank Holiday weekend.

Originally the road was used by vehicles, but in November 2008 the road was closed and became for the exclusive use of pedestrians.
