It can get quite costly depending on what kind of monitoring you want. You want security or police on each side of it, to make sure no undesirables go down there or stay down there? You only want them there during 'busy' times, or 24/7? Is one guard enough? What about all the other tunnels? Police and Bylaw are already there pretty frequently as is (as noted in the OP). Do you put a couple cameras down there and pay someone to sit and watch the cameras? During busy times? Night time? 24/7? Security isn't cheap.
At what point does the cost of monitoring/maintaining the barely used tunnel outweigh it's actual (or even it's perceived) benefit?
