NIMBYs often have a justifiable complaint but get called that as an insult by greedy developers. I don't know if these are justified complainants or not but by all accounts the A303 is now very grim so I suppose a lot of new "rat runs" have been developed.
A tunnel is all very well as it will remove the 'eyesore' of a road passing by the henge, but it's not going to deal with the bottleneck just up the road is it and THAT should be the main priority surely, the tunnel coming later!I feel kind of guilty that I'm pleased about changes that have caused so much hassle elsewhere but what can you do, leave SH in a mess for another 50 years?
Maybe the Govt will revisit the tunnel idea if it gets too bad. If it takes everyone another half hour to get to the West Country the tunnel looks like a cheap cure. But a long one please.
Actually, never thought of it before but the improvements might have actually strengthened the calls for a tunnel - but a short one. :(
