Irreparable damage to the WHS, its archaeology and setting, described by UNESCO as a ‘landscape without parallel’  and I feel that not enough is being done to preserve it.
UNESCO’s international advisers say the scheme should not go ahead in its present form; These warnings need to be more seriously heeded.
I have concerns about damage to Blick Mead Mesolithic site and its setting, these damages are irreversible.
Lack of alternative options in consultation that would not damage the World Heritage Site
Loss of the view from the road and need to pay to see the Stones in future: I want to be able to bring my grandchildren here to experience this awsome site.
Disturbance of rare bird species (Stone Curlew and Great Bustard)
Increased noise from faster traffic: accommodating traffic now with the resulting damage to this precious site is frivolous when such traffic in the future may not even exist due to changing modes of transportation.  It simply isn't worth it.

Please stop this now.
