Walk Through Information

Hey guys and gals
Good news!!!! I have the walk through information I have been promising you. If I'm honest I've had it a few days but only got round to putting up here!!. Please see below:
As we all know the planned date for the walk through is 14th May 2011. Due to the nature of where the tunnel is located and for health and safety reasons there will be 10 park and ride venues situated at various locations including Haslemere, Liphook, Milford, Thursley amongst others. It will be necessary to book a time for your park and ride slot. Nobody will be allowed into the tunnel without a ticket! More details on this to follow.
With regards to the ticket prices this is currently under review due to the budget cuts imposed by the government. The Hindhead Together team is working very hard to keep these costs as low as possible and I will publish more information about the prices and how to book around the end of march. The cost will cover your entrance into the tunnel and your park and ride fare.
It will be well worth every penny as I know full well from going into the tunnel in February 2009 seeing how amazing it was then!
All funds that are raised, after costs have been covered, will go into the Hindhead Community Fund. Local groups, charities and other organisations can then apply for grants from this fund which not only helps out local organisations and worthwhile causes but also contributes back into the local area
Trust me folks this is a once in a lifetime opportunity and will be a brilliant event and worth every second.
Of course as i soon as i have more information i shall post it on here but if you have any questions or comments please keep sending them in, until then...
Keep on diggin.............

Just a quickie

Howdy folks

Went to the southern end today to take some photo's but dropped my camera in a puddle and now it won't work - oops!

My wife has started a blog on what she makes using fimo - check out the link on left below

More photo's to come soon guys!

Keep on diggin...........










Red Robbo went out last weekend although it looks very cold and wet out there.

He took some really good photo's of the Northern end. It's good because things are progressing very quickly now and every time you go it has changed.

Well done Red Robbo!!!!

Museum Exhibition

Hey everyone,

Hope we are well and enjoying the little bit of sunshine today, lets hope it stays for my birthday tomorrow!!!

I have been made aware of something quiet exciting which I think you all need to know about. As some of you will be aware their was an exhibition at Haslemere museum asked Balfour to do a display to mark the halfway mark of the works, well there is going to be another one.

The exhibition will run until the 12th March and as always entry is free although the museum does ask for donations, which is really worthwhile to help keep this local attraction going. It will be displaying all the works from start to current through pictures and photo's and will be well worth a look just to see what has actually gone on and how much work and effort has gone in to improve all our lives.

So go along and have a good look as their really is not that long left in the whole project so don't be the one that misses out!

If you have any questions then feel free to email me and i'll seek you answers!

Tunnel Walk-Through

Evening all,
I trust we are all well and wrapped up nice and warm!!!!
Just a quick post say that I have had a few emails from people regarding the planned open day at the tunnel next year and what is going to happen.
So you all know I have got in touch with my contacts, who are organising it, for some information on the planned events. Once I know and have got the all clear I shall post more details on here.
Not sure how long it will be so keep your eyes peeled and feel free to email me in the meantime if there is anything else I can be of assistance with!
Also there is an update on the Highways Agency website regarding the traffic management over the Christmas period. They also have some more up to date photo's on there which i am hoping to get on here over the next few days.

Walking in a winter tunnel land



Howdy folks

Sorry not been on for a while. I took a quick stroll down to Nutcombe earlier today and found a lovely wintry scene. Also they are starting to put the decorative frontage under the bridge and looks like they might be getting ready to do the 2 ends as well.

I only took a few as it was soooooo cold I'm sure I saw a brass monkey looking for a welder!

Anyway should hope to have some very exciting pics on here soon but more to follow on that one!
