Briefly, the scheme desecrates a UNESCO world heritage site and risk causing irreversible damage to other late mesolithic remains in the area. It is likely that such a scheme would have an adverse affect on the habitat of local wildlife. Although the proposal would shorten journey times the cost involved is disproportionate to any slight advantage gained. Technology is advancing at such a rapid and exponential rate that in twenty or thirty years time, or even less, the current proposal might well not even be needed and it is surely not worth vandalizing and contaminating for such a short term gain.
