What's this all about?

• The British government wanted to construct a new 4-lane highway through the Stonehenge World Heritage site and its surrounding landscape
• Less than 20% of the highway would have been in a tunnel
• Over 80% would have been bulldozed at ground level or in deep cuttings
• The stone circle would not have been damaged or destroyed
• But the highway would have been massively destructive of the World Heritage Site around it

On Thursday 6th December 2007, the Stonehenge tunnel scheme was officially SCRAPPED!
