  • I do not encourage anyone to enter culverts, unclog anything, or enter flooded areas as it can easily become deadly without the proper training
    I unclog drains for fun in my spare time (I have been trained in culvert inspections for years with private co.) and I am osha trained.
    Exploring anything abandoned can be dangerous or deadly without experience. I don't encourage anyone to enter any abandoned structures. Not only is safety a concern, but often times its illegal, and when possible I seek out permission from the owner or local police. I simply go to document its history before it's gone forever and I leave things the way I find them. I only take pictures and only leave footprints. I assume all the risks and responsibility before doing this. Please don't attempt to do this on your own. There could be nails, asbestos, falling concrete, soft floors, animals, or other hazards. Thanks for watching.

    There wasn't actually a toll plaza there. What you are seeing is the former Cove Valley service plaza. The things that look like toll lanes were actually gas pump islands. I've gone through that tunnel (Sideling Hill) before but never through the plenum, so I really enjoyed seeing this! Thank you for taking us along!

      @HatstandEvents In the USA, culverts, roads, and bridges are primarily managed by their state and local governments. The federal government doesn't do much when it comes to roads and culverts. Road quality can vary from state to state because of this. Pete Buttigieg is the Secretary of Transportation for the US and really has nothing to do with things like that. The federal government might provide states with grants to fix this or that, but that has to be approved by Congress. Pete would be able to provide minor oversight in those situations, but that's about it.

      More specifically, a plenum or plenum space is part of a structure used for air handling. In some cases it can also be the space under a raised floor. You will also find some cabling labeled for use in plenum spaces because there are criteria related to off fading of volatile compounds both in normal operation and in case of fire.

    Interesting. The size of the tunnel is kind of similar to a size of the old abandoned railroad tunnel I've tried to walk through in my country. Though it had a giant pool of water in the middle cause it was probably built wrong. It has similar drainage system too, but it does not help any, so we had to go back the way we came (had no good enough boots on us back then)
