I am registering as an interested party as the proposed crossing will directly affect our lives. [Redacted] the increased pollution levels will certainly affect him. Also the projected pollution levels still exceed WHO guidelines. Also, with the increase of working from home, traffic levels have fallen. The main problem will still be at Dartford…the proposal named A14 should have been the way forward…correcting the problem at Dartford and thereby eliminating the need for a further crossing, which will destroy Grade A farmland and cut through ancient forests, which CANNOT be replaced, no matter how many trees will be replanted. “Ancient” describes not only the age of trees but the whole ecosystem.
