Compared with TR3140 : Repairs to the railway, it is to be assumed that a use will be made for the blocks of concrete beside the track. The Portaloo, on the other hand, has been moved nearer to the mouth of Shakespeare Tunnel.
On 24 August 2016, I saw that Southeastern Railway had published this update on the repairs to this railway:
The railway between Dover and Folkestone will reopen on Monday 5 September following a nine-month project to repair the line.
Passengers from Dover, Deal, Walmer, Sandwich and Martin Mill will soon be able to use a full train service again, as Network Rail completes a £39.8m project. The line between Dover and Folkestone had to be closed on Christmas Eve last year after extensive damage to the sea wall was found at Shakespeare beach.
Since then, Network Rail’s orange army has worked to build a new 235 metre long viaduct supported by more than 130 concrete columns Link
TR3140 : Dover Western Docks The view hasnt changed much in 20 years - except for the lack of ferries or hovercrafts sadly.
I guess the Chunnel has had a big effect on Dover Western - a previous post in the last week or so mentioned ferries no longer run from Folkestone now.
Glad to see the lighthouse cafe still there in the centre - at least that's safer from passing ferries now :)
