I believe the majority of previous representations have been a combination of those against and "don't knows". The tunnel is clearly being railroaded through as part of the project in spite of this and begs the question as to whether the Consultations are merely of window dressing status. The cost of the tunnel, if it is intended to aquiesce to minority views in favour of this aspect of "improvements" to the A303 in this area should be met by the "corporate" lobbyist groups.

By now the A303, for decades a complete nightmare to use, should have been upgraded to dual carriageway. The part passing Stonehenge should be set down 20ft and tree screening planted along the northern edge. Any archaeological items disturbed are in fact duplicated all around the Stonehenge as ground radar research has revealed.

I believe the Consultation to be a farce.
