Woodley Tunnel on the Peak Forest Canal is 153 metres long; method of working is two way traffic; approximate travel time through the tunnel is 1 min 30 secs.
The Peak Forest Canal runs for 15 miles between Ashton under Lyne and Whaley Bridge. It was built to link the Ashton Canal with the tramways that brought limestone from the Peak District quarries.
