Hey guys, how you all doing?,

this has been in my mind for a good 4 years since the last UE group i was with. anyway straight to the point.

In Melbourne, near flinders street station or across the road there is a church, around this church is a manhole that goes to underground disused huge RCP's (Round Concrete Pipe), apparently its a whole network and you can roam around in there. supposedly really big, have walked around many times but there is a lot of manholes and i wouldnt know which one to look for.

anyone have any similar info? or can anyone confirm true or false.

Careful with tunnels under the CBD as most of it is alarmend and has rapid response from security or police.

Sorry dude, but having explored the area and undergrounds, I call bullshit.

I'd love to be proven wrong here. Source on your information?

different sources, an old teacher from vic uni that used to urbex, couple of guys from old urbex group also confirmed, but if it is bs, thanks for clearing it up.

Can anyone confirm or deny this? Looks like I might be popping some manholes at like 3am in the CBD

Sounds interesting.

Pop away, you won't find anything.

Telstra covers are locked and don't go anywhere other than pits,
Gatics will get you poop.
Round concrete ones will get you electrical junctions.
Getting caught with any will land you in trouble.

When this came up I did a Dial Before you Dig lookup on these and nothing came up. There are tunnels under the CBD, but these are not them.
