Not only is the site important for Britain, it is a UNESCO world heritage site and as such should remain as is, the setting is as important as the stones themselves. It is also an important site for two rare bird species, as well as lost habitat individuals could be lost to fast moving traffic closer to their breeding ground - if they are not actually driven away. This plan also risks damaging the Blick Mead Mesolithic site. new roads should be routed away, not nearer to this important site. New faster roads just speed traffic to the next bottleneck. Roads are like rivers, flooding is less likely if flow is slowed, not speeded up.
