Knollys Tunnel, Tabaquite, Trinidad 2019 | #OnDeRoadTripz | WhaTooCook.com
In this episode of #OnDeRoadTripz we drove to Knollys Tunnel (the longest tunnel in the Caribbean), Tabaquite,Trinidad. I was so excited to find about this tunnel and just had to make the trip.
This tunnel was built in 1898 to enable the railway line from Jermingham Junction Cunupia to Tabaquite to go through one of the hills in the Central Range. It is 660 feet long and was designed by the then Director of Public Works Walsh Wrightson. The acting Governor at the time was Sir Courtenay Knolls. This tunnel is the only man made tunnel in Trinidad and Tobago and was quite an engineering feat for its time.

The Knolly’s Tunnel is an old railroad tunnel which is situated off the Tabaquite Main Road in Central Trinidad. Approximately a quarter mile long, the tunnel is reportedly one of the longest in the Caribbean.
The construction which began in 1896 took two years to complete and utilised the skills of over 200 African and Indian workers. The tunnel was constructed to link the Rio Claro hinterland with Port-of-Spain and to facilitate the transport of cocoa, coffee and other agricultural produce from the rich Brasso-Caparo Valley.
The tunnel which was named after Sir Clement C Knolly who was then the Acting Governor of Trinidad and Tobago, was opened by him on August 13, 1898.
Project coordinator Lennard Muhammed Abdullahi James said that the area above the tunnel will be made into a 19th century village. He added that the project will take approximately 24 to 36 months to complete. According to James, future plans for the Knolly’s Tunnel Rural Tourism Corridor and Biodiversity Nature Reserve include a Rural Information Technology Centre, Herbal Gardens with culinary and medicinal herbs, nature trails, reafforestation with rare fruit trees and exotic plants, nursery and potting shed and an animal reserve.
