(2025黑龙江伊春高一期中)

The plans for a road tunnel near Stonehenge have been strongly criticized by a major UN body,stating that unless significant changes are made,the project should not move forward.

Transport Secretary Mark Harper approved a Development Consent Order (DCO) for the project on the A303 in Wiltshire in July,2023.A DCO previously issued for the ￡1.7bn National Highways project was canceled by the High Court in July 2021 due to concerns over the environmental impact on the UNESCO World Heritage Site.The plans involve rebuilding eight miles of the A303 to change a stretch of road — which has only one lane (车道) in both directions — well-known for its traffic problems.The project includes digging a two-mile tunnel,which would remove the A303 from sight next to Stonehenge.As it stands,it goes directly past the world-famous heritage site.

However,UNESCO warned that the “western entrance” of the tunnel and associated dual carriageway (双向车道) would have “significant and inappropriate impacts on the physical and visual integrity (整体性) of Stonehenge”.UNESCO has asked the government to move the western entrance of the planned tunnel “as far west as reasonably practical” to minimize archaeological (考古的) removals,as part of its recommendations.

In August,the Save Stonehenge World Heritage Site campaign started a legal battle against the government’s decision to press ahead with the plans,having successfully blocked the project in 2021.The Stonehenge Alliance,the group against the tunnel plans,added:“Stonehenge World Heritage Site is in danger now,with the legal action challenging the government’s decision the only thing keeping the bulldozers off the site.We can only hope that it succeeds,because placing the site on the List of World Heritage in Danger could be too late.” 

National Highways’ project manager for the project,David Bullock,said its aim is to protect the site.“We remain confident this project is the best solution for solving a long-standing traffic problem,improving journeys,bringing much-needed relief to local communities,and helping the economy in the southwest,while returning the Stonehenge landscape to something like its original setting,” he added.
