Default Kingsway Tram Subway open to the general public

"MetroGnome" wrote in message news:gARjc.72$xm2.30@newsfe1-win...
Just found this on a bus mailing list:

The Kingsway Subway has been open to the public for the past few days.
The occasion is an art exhibition organised by the St Martins College

of
Art just across the road from the entrance. It runs from 23-29 April I
believe. While the LT Museum has organised a few prebooked visits to

the
subway in the past, and I faintly recall Ian Allan advertising a visit
many years ago, this is I believe the first time, since the trams

went,
that members of the public have been able to simply walk in off the

street,
free of charge, down the slope and explore the subway, as far
as I think halfway down Kingsway.


JFYI, I went and had a look at the Kingsway tram tunnel today. The
entrance is sealed again, and blocked with a lot of miscellaneous
building materials, as well as a crane-on-a-truck and some heavy
plant.

Brad
