The WVA (Wensum Valley Alliance) is concerned about the Road Building proposals for the County generally, but particularly for the impact upon the Chalk streams and river environments on the grounds of (a) cumulative effect upon eco systems and the environment generally e.g. this proposal takes down existing woodland and damages areas adjacent to the River Tud, but this also applies to the Thickthorn roundabout proposals and the Cant stream, and to the North Burlingham proposals. How many mature trees will be lost in combination ? How much farmland is taken ?. How many Country Wildlife and special interest Sites ? (b) the failure to acknowledge that "mitigation" in current forms is not a solution to the disruption to eco-systems during the years of survey, construction and after for years.
