Oh good luck with that.
This issue has been going on for years. Last I heard, there was a struggle between the MBTA and the Parks Dept about whose responsibility it is to maintain the tunnel.
Not much of a tunnel
did the picture come from a lightless phone???
Night time walks
Good spot to walk a spider dog.
Darkness falls
There's a light post in Fallon Field across from the end of the walkway - the walkway is ~190 feet long, ~70 feet being tunnel - but none looking over the walkway's Belgrade Ave end.

So take it up with them.
Your best bet would probably be to get in contact with your state Rep or Senator and see if they can twist some arms to get the T to put in some lighting.
It's better without light
If there were light in the tunnel then you'd have to see all the broken glass and urine.
