Campaign to stop the A350 Westbury Eastern Bypass

The White Horse Alliance is an umbrella organisation for local people and environmental groups who are campaigning to preserve the countryside around Westbury in Wiltshire, and who oppose a road in the Wellhead Valley, at the foot of the Westbury White Horse.

Wiltshire County Council wants to create a "strategic route" between the south coast and the M4 motorway, defying the regional strategy and rejecting transport solutions which reduce traffic and pollution. The proposed road - the A350 Westbury Eastern Bypass - is three and a third miles long (5.4 km) and costs about £ 35 million. It will remove lorry traffic from outside 230 properties in Westbury but it is opposed by the majority of the town's 10,000 residents and neighbouring villages.

We are asking for a re-think at the forthcoming public inquiry into the road scheme.
