It's not an error, it was her escaping. If you look, there was nowhere for her to go underground under the dock, there was just land/shore. She got out and ran back to the grate.
When the killer steps on it you clearly see a handle, and when she turns to run into the tunnel, you see stairs that were in front of her, no doubt she used the handle lift open the grate and the stairs to get down there.

Sadly I've noticed this haha.
At first I thought it was just her escaping, but then she's underground again, so must def be a goof.
