Organisations which were against the eastern Westbury bypass scheme suggest integrated traffic solutions based on strategic access roads and what is in place.

  • www.corridor-alliance.co.uk - now the website of the White Horse Alliance, an umbrella grouping formed in 2007 to stop the Eastern Westbury Bypass - with various recent campaign information.

......................................................................................

Inner bypass roads proposed by Wiltshire (County) Council for Salisbury,
which were campaigned against, also had Government funding refused.

  • Restore UK supported the campaign against the eastern bypass project.
  • Manuka fund assisted the anti eastern campaign - Weekend Telegraph.

Here is a group which supported an eastern bypass around Westbury.

We might have included a link to the failed Westbury Bypass NOW! group.
But the 'Bypass NOW!' website now appears to have been abandoned.

Here is a website about another unsuitable road plan in the South-West.
