I can't believe this plan which prioritizes a road over this ancient historic site - we, the public and future generations deserve better as does the preservation of Stonehenge. The plan, which is supposed to remove the sound and sight of traffic via a new traffic route on the surface and close to the stone circle would be created. The project will wreck the site, and I think it should be scrapped completely. I'm concerned about the linking of two ancient byways, currently separated by the A303. If the byways are joined as is suggested, it could mean vehicles will still pass close to the circle, albeit going slower than on the A303 and in much smaller numbers. I'm concerned about the detrimental impact of traffic on the byways and believe this will be made worse by the proposal to link existing byways after the surface A303 is removed.
