I've read 10:30am. I guessed around 10-11 so this fits well..

I'll go up at 11am and report back.

Supposed to be openeing at 10:30 (ish) will listen to local radio for updates!

I was going to have a quick blast through at lunchtime but can't take the Cerb out at the moment... The front numberplate seems to have fallen off!!

It's open!

Heard that too.. They're still down to 1 lane from Thursley to the tunnel entrance due to some armco that needs putting in place.

I'm going to go down later at like 9pm to have a look.. Should be quieter then.

Just tried myself on my commute home and came off at Brook.. awful traffic. Worst I've seen in ages!

It was getting that way when I was there about an hour/hour and a half ago.

Only takes ten mins to get through the traffic. Single lane in place whilst central armco going up in places. Sports exhaust sounds great in the tunnel! Average speed cameras running through it so be careful.

Northbound side opening Friday apparently.

So went over the punchbowl northbound for the last time tonight & then finally got to drive through the tunnel. Amazing how quickly you seem to go through it, even at 60. Shame nothing loud and restless was going through as I had the roof down.

Northbound tomorrow.
