High Court dismisses Stonehenge tunnel challenge

Campaigners have lost a High Court challenge against the Government’s renewed plans to build a tunnel near the historic Stonehenge site.
The campaigners were challenging the Government’s development consent order last summer for the A303 Amesbury to Berwick Down upgrade.
Previously Save Stonehenge World Heritage Site campaigners succeeded in blocking progress on the project after the High Court in July 2021 quashed the scheme over concerns about the environmental impact on the site.B
