Default Wednesday's Kingsway subterranean cable fire still burning

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-32157618

Includes a photo from the London Eye showing the area of electricity
black-out.

The fire doesn't appear to be in a reused bit of the Kingsway tram
tunnel, but it could well be adjacent to it.

It's certainly well away from the (former) deep-level Kingsway telephone
exchange.

The road is very much still closed - lots of traffic disruption and
re-routed buses.
