Monumental Decision.

This pandemic has accelerated a move to home working so peak time traffic for work purposes will be reduced. If the government invested the money for road building into an effective and cheaper public transport system that would also reduce traffic flow.

Don’t forget, the carbon emissions of a major road building scheme, especially a tunnel which uses tonnes and tonnes of concrete is astronomical even before a car has driven on it.

 

They have just passed planning to build a replica in York i believe.

 

I think the tunnel is also to stop people slowing down to see the monument causing traffic issues.

Also - these things were placed in these specific locations for seemingly a reason. Some suggest the stones in the ground are like acupuncture for the planet given there are stones placed on all these laylines etc - who knows what the real reason they are there for - so many things we dont understand still.

Mind you can things get much worse than what they are right now?

 

The surrounding area is hardly preserved currently the A303 near Stonehenge is almost always rammed with traffic lol. There will always be people to complain about it understandably the conservationists will, but I’m my opinion the tunnel being built is the right decision.

 

And how much damage did they do when they built it, dragging the stones from hither and thither. No doubt at the time there was some fecker dressed in animal skins saying "when ar worra lad this was all fields".

 

i tried my best to avoid non essential running. i did a couple of spots at middle wallop 70/80s it was our depot ( aac). i was a beautiful area, i watched a time team dig when they dug ssw ( support weapons wing) in n/avon and the one where they tried to figure how the old guys got got the stones to stonehenge, it showed you the river avon which i didnt used to poach trout from by setting night lines or rabbits from the old ammo dump hehe. a place absolutely rammed with unexplained history
