Carbon assessment of A303 Stonehenge scheme for 60 year appraisal period

The request was successful.

Dear Highways England Company Limited,

Please can you send me all the appraisal for assessing the carbon impact of the A303 Amesbury to Berwick Down (Stonehenge) scheme during the 60 year appraisal period. I would like to know the net increase of carbon emissions during the construction period and the 60 year operation (emissions caused by users) of the scheme compared to 'do minimum'.

I would like to know the increase in carbon emissions for each year of the scheme's 60 year appraisal period, and I would like to know the total net increase in carbon emissions during this 60 year appraisal period compared to 'do minimum'.

I cannot find this information in Chapter 14 of the Environmental Statement for this scheme. I can only find the increase in emissions in the opening year and the design year (2041) in Table 14.15, and the net emissions increase up to 2032 in Table 14.16.

It is important that the full carbon impact of this scheme year-by-year is known and understood and in the public domain.

Yours faithfully,

Rebecca Lush
