Stop the road tunnel at Stonehenge as recommended by the planning inspector.

What the petition asks

The road development approved by the government in November 2020 must cease in accordance to the findings of the independent planning inspector. Earth moving in this area could disturb archeological research and the cultural and historical significance of this monument cannot be understated.
Stonehenge is a UN World Heritage Site and should be protected from this kind of development that could damage it or the surrounding palaeolithic archaeology.
