I am concerned that there will be damage and fragmentation of habitats for wildlife and want to see ancient woodlands protected. The construction of HS2 highlighted the disregard shown for mature trees. Agricultural land should also be protected so that we do not rely on imported food. The construction of this crossing will generate more traffic increasing CO2 emissions which directly conflict the government's target to achieve net zero by 2050
