United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

I'm not sure what you mean?
It's a two-part problem, the road going from dual carriageway to single, and people wanting to grab a look on the way past.
Stonehenge is a unesco site on a plain, so widening the existing road, or planting a huge row of trees, is not going to go down well with the druids.
Getting the road out of site (by either tunnel or diversion) will go a long way to de-modernising the surroundings. (And a fun fact: Half of stonehenge was underpinned with concrete in the last century! So any ways to make it more natural are a plus.)
I don't object to a road being built. I object to £2.3b being spent on it. If the view is so much of a problem then spent a lot less and block it. Add a mound, put some trees there, even a wall would be cheaper.
If de-modernising is such a good thing can we all have it? OFC not because it would be bloody stupid, much like this hair-brained scheme is.
