Search for A303 archaeological specialists begins
We’ve launched a search to find archaeological specialists to carry out excavation and mitigation work ahead of our proposed upgrade of the A303 past Stonehenge.
This doesn’t pre-empt the Secretary of State for Transport’s decision about our development consent order application – which is now expected by 17 July. We are progressing this procurement process to ensure the project is in the best position to proceed quickly, if we get the green light.
New safety improvements for Amesbury shared footway
We’ve joined forces with Wiltshire Council to help improve the safety of walkers and cyclists with an upgrade of NationalCycle route 45 around Solstice Park near Amesbury thanks to over £100,000 of Highways England funding.
