Burnley Tunnel Question

[bLaQ.bOi]

the speedlimit is 80 usually

tonight it said 60 before the tunnel because of roadworks

are the cameras in the tunnel set to the 60kmph? or would it still be at 80

someone wasnt paying attention and was going about 75!!!

[chris_r31]

nah u will be rite.. just pay attention next time lol..

i was part of the crue that was painting all the shit u see in there and u dont realise, but 60kms is pretty fast.

and those trucks that came thru at night with chickens on em, the smell is fu**in bad.

[bLaQ.bOi]

farkn hell thank god lol

this can be deleted!

they adjust to the speed. just need to be lucky and hope they were not working which happens.

but they do adjusted with the speed chnage in the tunnels.

The Burnley tunnel is such a con! When the traffic get heavy they slow you down by 20km/hr and reduce you into 2 lanes. Sure I know 1 is fro emergency vehicle access should some nuff nuff cause another hindenberg in there. But sh!T how about some forward planing for things like that. :END RANT:

they also slow down the tunnels so that they can clear the fwy of accidents/roadworks furthur up with less traffic... works well, just go around the tunnels

Just thought Id add this useless info for the hell of it...It is possible to speed in the Tunnel and get away with it Not that I recommend it by any means. My old boss from my last company hooked up the speed cameras in the tunnel yonks ago. Their are sets of 4 faded black lines that run across the road every 300m or so i think. they are quite difficult to see in a low clearence vehicle, but at these points this is where the cameras are triggered to measure your speed. anyoo.. point of the story is u can go as fast as u want between these points aslong as your at the speed limit when you go over them.

[KURAUN]

or you could just not speed through it

the guys that did the speed cameras in the tunnels is now bankrut you do the math

the strips for the tunnel verisons re pezo strips...just slow down before you get there...make sure you know where they are, use the exit markers as a guide. If you look you can see both the cameras in the gantry and the strips on the road. its not hard.

Not withstanding they are not always on for system maintence (backend) but thats not common.

dont speed is the easy solution.

So its you f**kers that hold me up every night when i go through there.

Piss's me off, pretty much every night (even before they started putting the wall paper up) for the last year the tunnel is reduced to 2 lanes and the speed limit reduced, it should be free when shit like that happens.

Its also a clue to how well it is built, most of the time its shut on saturday nights and there doing other work in there every other night.

[chris_r31]

if only u knew how WELL it was built, lol..

put it this way every time i have worked in the burnley, not so much the domain i have always said good bye to my

2 sisters, mum and dad and of corse my r32..
