    Default Liverpool's latest tunnel

    WORK is about to start on Liverpool's latest tunnel - an underground road network that will lead motorists to the 2,000-space car park beneath Chavasse Park.

    In a complicated engineering project, 8,000 square metres of earth will be excavated to create two vehicle ramps in Strand Street to provide access to the underground car park being built as part of the Grosvenor Project.

    When the Grosvenor development opens in 2008, cars will use the ramps, one for traffic coming from Sefton Street, the other from the Pier Head, to enter the basement level of the car park more than 23ft below the road surface.

    The ramps will be in the centre of the road, reached by specially marked lanes.

    Because of the major work involved it will mean lane diversions along the Strand while the work is carried out to create the underground tunnels.

    Grosvenor's construction partner, Laing O'Rourke, begins preparation work to construct the ramps this summer with the main work beginning towards the autumn.

    Peter Jones, civil engineer with Laing O'Rourke, said: "One of the main points of arrival to Liverpool One will be the car park that sits underneath what was Chavasse Park.

    "Capita Symonds, the project's highways engineers, have designed two ramps, positioned in what is currently the central reservation in Strand Street.

    "These ramps will provide an entry point, delivering cars to the lowest basement level of the car park. more

    Dave the tour was very good, the initial chat in the information centre was great. The lovely lady (pics will arrive on the other forum I'm sure ) talked us around the area and with lots of knowledge as u would expect even when she was grilled about a few things she took it in good spirits and was suprised at the knowledge of Woody.

    Then we were taken out of the info centre, around by maccies all the way around to the end of Paradise Street were we entered just around the corner, through a secure turnstile. Its like a little village in there, everything you could want for the workers. She led us up to a viewing platform and thats were we stayed for a bit taking in the sites.

    Next year was mentioned about a possible time for another viewing.

    I was very impressed with the site and the model and discussion, truely amazing and huge. I forgot how expansive the area is, not just the chavasse area.

    There was talk (and she wouldnt deny it) that the Hilton would be the hotel opposite the Police Station
