Hindhead tunnel open!

[iandc]

According to Breakfast on the BBC today the tunnel is finally open. I will take a look on Saturday. There was a thread about doing a run through it posted sometime ago so don't know whether anyone is doing it.

I'm in.... Best wait until after weekend when both tunnels will be open.
Also in was Mclelland77.
Not heard from Will and/or Dave T.
Is that it then, just the 3 Gallardos?

Must be one of the most expensive thrill rides in the world looking at how much petrol I used for the round trip!

Wow, awesome.....

Went through around 9pm. 40mph restriction lifted so could go up to 70mph.
Only dissappointment was even at 1.5 miles its over to quick and it's a bloody long way round to do it again. Roll on Friday and northbound open!

Went through on Saturday. Both sides now open and 70mph limit via average speed cameras. I agree it is over too quickly. Plus Police are out with mobile cameras further south on the A3 to catch you if you get too enthusiastic having passed through the tunnel.
