My concerns are that: . The road will destroy a lot of natural habitat . This area was abused in the past by industry but over the last 50 years has been rehabilitated and I fear the new road will once again undo all the hard work of volunteers and local councils. . The noise levels around the new road especially where it joins the M25 will increase to an unbearable level. . I am also concerned about air quality. . Some road users have no respect for the countryside they drive through, you only have to look at the verges alongside our roads at the litter and fly-tipping. I would like to know what the planners are going to do to mitigate this problem. .What guarantees do residents have that the construction companies will respect our right to have a quiet and peaceful environment while they are building the road? . Why do the owners of the new road not think that local residents deserve compensation for the disruption caused. We at least should have some sort of support with payments to go through the new tunnel when it is completed. I am afraid this new road will only increase traffic on the M25, it will lead to the degradation of the countryside and the environment in which I live.
