I have my horses in the stables opposite the proposed loop and their welfare and overall health will be severely impacted by the work proposed and the length of time it will take to complete the work, due to their ages it may shorten their over all life given the expected air, noise and light pollution. There is also risk of both land and water pollution. The telephone mast was recently rebuilt over several weeks in December and the disruption was horrendous due to the inadequate access which is apparently earmarked to be used again. The money could be better spent on improving public transport in the area thus encouraging people to leave their cars at home, which given climate change is the only sensible thing to do . The majority of the holdups are on the other side of the motorway so the impact on the traffic will not be proportionate to the cost.
