Scale of scheme far exceeds resonable proportions that would be acceptable to the small rural communities directly affected. Quality of life for all local residents would be adversely affected, particularly during the projects contruction phase. Through traffic on Local B roads increases year on year as vehicals of all sizes opt to use our high streets as A14/A11 'cut throughs'. Adding heavy contruction vehicles to this mix will cause significant noise and safety issues. Prime agricultural land will be completely taken out of production for at least 40 years. This seems absurd given the obvious need to reduce food miles and increase sourcing locally grown produce.
