UK people who were adults when the Chunnel opened, what was it like? (lemmy.ca)

What was life like before and after? Was there a noticeable change? Was it more of a mental change? Anything else?

Nothing really changed. Some people who would have taken a ferry changed to the tunnel. But flights became cheaper so the number of people using ferries dropped anyway.

Had you been able to drive straight through then it would have had a bigger effect.
