What I cannot picture is where this proposed tunnel’s entrance and exit would be. Is the intention to go under the railway near Bulls Hill? Would the proposed tunnel be capable of handling heavy vehicles? (I know Woy Woy Road has a weight limit, but emergency vehicles will need to be able to cross the railway, along with normal vehicles in the event that Spike Milligan Bridge and The Rip Bridge became unusable for some reason).
