Keightley Way is a southwestern road and tunnel in the British Overseas Territory of Gibraltar. The public highway connects Rosia Road at Little Bay to Nun’s Well at Europa Point, providing a road link in the south of Gibraltar. The tunnel is owned and operated by the Government of Gibraltar and carries both automotive and pedestrian traffic. It is described as a highway and is open with no tolls charged. Dug in 1960, Keightley Way was the last surface tunnel to be built in Gibraltar. The tunnel was designed to accommodate a two-lane road with additional space for pedestrians. However, it now carries only one lane of traffic southbound, alongside pedestrian use. The tunnel’s length is given as 0.412 kilometres, and the indicated speed limit is 30 kilometres per hour, with a single traffic lane. Keightley Way was named after General Sir Charles Keightley, who was Governor of Gibraltar at the time the tunnel was created. Its northern entrance is a notable feature, depicted in images associated with the site. Classified as a road tunnel, it appears in categories for streets and tunnels in Gibraltar, as well as broader road tunnel classifications.
