I am against this proposed by pass as it will damage wildlife and precious greenspaces and it will not lead to less traffic. From experience I have seen other bypasses built professing to reduce traffic but this is never the case, more roads mean more cars. Please try to think outside the box, create better public transport,encourage people to walk/bike/use buses. Make public transport so efficient and good value or even free. Leave Swallows wood alone for the wildlife for our health and our future generations to enjoy. You cant maje more land please do not destroy it for a hugely expensive folly which will not succeed in its claims. Halina Billingham
