Not trying to shoot my mouth off, just correcting erroneous posted information.

The tunnel near Palmer CC that goes over to the Bridgeport Rec Center, under Buena Vista Blvd, has not been and is not closed.

Tunnel closures are listed on the VCDD'S website.

That is true but the next one north of that is closed with 8 - 10 inches of water. There is a stop sign and cones at the entrance.

if you try to take the golf cart path from belvedere to Buena Vista to Lake Sumter Landing you will be stuck.. the tunnel is closed .. I just went past it and cones and tape are blocking the entrance.

You can go to thevillages.net and look for vCDD (community development districts) and find the info you seek. I get regular email notifications updating tunnel closures, debris pickup, recovery effort status, and during normal times it tells you when Rec centers, etc. are going to be closed. You need to know which is your district. Here in Lake Deaton, we are 10.

From Belvedere area, you can go up to Parr drive and take that tunnel under Buena Vista over towards Laurel Manor then cut through Winifred neighborhood and pop back out onto BV trail just south of the closed tunnel to head down towards Sumter. I Did this yesterday.

Also, the tunnel near Lake Miona Rec Center is open...went through it earlier today. It was on the CDD closed list today.

Not trying to stir up anything, just an observation. It is odd that, other than the tunnel by Wal-Maet, all the tunnels closed are south of 466?

Save your confederate money. The south will rise again;)...or fall again.

You are a good person Mleeja. Wonder why that is?

If that is the case, how do we get up to date information if we can't depend on TV CDD website?
