"Eva, any word on which the tunnel entrance might be closest to the accident?"
Eva nodded. "We're en route to the Battery park entry-way."
The Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel was actually two tubes, one eastbound, one westbound, traversing the space between Battery Park and Manhattan. Spanning over a mile and a half, it was the longest continuous underwater vehicle tunnel in North America.
The helicopter took them to the Eastbound side, near the Governor's Island air exchange building. Battery Park entryway, which was currently free of impediment (Brooklyn side is outbound only at the moment, as that appears to be where the accident was. Cars were backed up both ways, though...
Eva claimed to have camera access. she noted that there was a flickering of lights on the far wall that suggested that there may be a fire in the vicinity, but that she did not have an adequate view to confirm. Standard tunnel traffic lights are on and functional, for what it's worth.
Getting into the tunnel wasn't difficult at all. But cars were backed up all the way, both ways. Eastbound traffic was stopped up because an route X28 bus was on it's side approximately half-way through the tunnel, spanning both lanes. Two more cars were lodged right up against it's underside. A small crowd was gathering on the traffic side, as some of the passengers from the bus were climbing out of the windows on the top-side of the accident.
Two men--one wearing a grey uniform of some sort, the other wearing jeans and a visi-vest, were assisting people out of the bus, itself. There were several green emergency crack-lights scattered around the bus.
There was water seeping from the ceiling of the tunnel.
The lighting in the tunnel flickered sporadically.
"I've just got word. We've got another one inbound from Governor's Island. Don't know who yet." Eva said.
"And I've got all sorts of reports of something moving underwater in your direction from the lower bay. Something big. More intel, when I've got it."
