Winter stirrings at Devonshire Tunnel

This is the grassed area above the filled cutting at Devonshire Tunnel at Christmas 2009 and at last, there's a (small) piece of real physical work on the route. The yellow pip in the centre foreground marks the position of a core sample taken to prove the material used to fill the cutting. We're confident that this is spoil removed from the embankment to the north, but best to be sure.

Fast Forward

The Two Tunnels route now has its own member of staff at Sustrans - since April of this year - an engineer/project manager tasked with bringing the route into being. Their work's really beginning to pay off.

And now we have a blog. It has actually been around since 2007 ... and there hangs a pig-tail ... it was put in place to provide an interactive resource for news of the project. Hopefully it can finally come into its own, now that things will soon be happening on the ground.
