HL Deb 02 November 1999 vol 606 cc79-80WA
Lord Kennet

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether there has been a full assessment of, and consultation with local authorities and public throughout the South West on, the proposed dualling of the A.303 at Stonehenge. [HL4393]

Lord Whitty

Since 1993 the Highways Agency has assessed and carried out consultation and a large number of possible options for the improvement of the A.303 trunk road at Stonehenge. This has involved consultation with local authorities and a large number of other bodies with an interest in the project as well as the affected local communities. A full assessment of the current proposal is being carried out as part of the ongoing work on the project.
