Ramsgate’s “Secret Weapon” Unveiled!
The latest edition of TUNNEL TIMES not only wishes everyone a Merry Christmas but also
promises a very exciting New Year. The
“secret weapon” in the form of an EPCV (Electric Pedestrian Controlled Vehicle)
will boldly go where no vehicle has gone before, into the depths of the
Ramsgate Tunnels system. Routing out dilapidations and fixing them, on its
missions deep into this space, blazing a trail which many will follow in the
future “Ramsgate Tunnels Explorer”.
Work starts early in the New Year to clear the
tunnels and make them safe for explorers. This will be followed by improvements
to access and escape routes together with essential services installations and
finally some historical exhibits. There will be opportunities for volunteers to train
as guides, taking groups into the far reaches of the tunnels, trips are
scheduled to commence in June 2014, subject to all permissions and funding
being approved.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU
ALL
