CAMPAIGNERS on both sides of the Stonehenge debate have reacted to the High Court judgement on a controversial £1.7 billion scheme to reduce congestion on the A303. Save Stonehenge World Heritage Site campaigners have won a court battle to prevent the scandalous construction of a two-mile road tunnel near the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Highways England project aimed to reduce A303 congestion along an eight-mile stretch between Amesbury and Berwick Down. But campaigners said it would have a disastrous impact on the 5,000-year-old Neolithic monument and surrounding landscape. The government approved plans in November for a two-mile tunnel to be created near the stones.
