    The council are building a new bigger tunnel right beside the old tunnel. They started the work in January with draining a section of the canal and now they're getting ready to dig.
    I think the new tunnel will be about 2.5 meters high and maybe 3 meters wide, something along those dimensions.
    The course of the Brosna is also gonna be moved under the new tunnel with lots of room to prevent flooding.

    Yay for no more dark, drippy, walls-covered-in-orange-goo tunnel.

Unreal.. Still will miss that old place for sure.. :D
