Save Our Sussex Villages
If your local wildlife, your very village and the climate were set to be sacrificed for your own MP's vanity project, how would you feel? Yet the current MP, Nick Herbert, has said, "I would sacrifice Binsted" to get his 70mph dual carriageway dream.
Here's Binsted village, rich in nature and traditions, a precious survival of Old England - wouldn't it sadden you to see this kind of place destroyed by the Arundel Bypass Magenta route?
Highways England are keeping their planned construction width secret for now. Why? Its trail of devastation could spread up to 100 metres either side of the road, shown below as it snakes through the village's homes (the red and blue stars).
Please act quickly to tell Highways England to get their hands off Binsted, Tortington, Walberton, Slindon, Yapton and Arundel's countryside:
In just a few minutes you could save this 1000-year-old village from the Magenta route - and still improve Arundel's traffic infrastructure - by supporting the
A27 Arundel Alternative

WHAT TO SAY?
1. OBJECT
to all four of the big bypasses through the countryside - Magenta, Amber, Grey and Crimson. Magenta is being pushed by would-be countryside-destroying MP Nick Herbert: Magenta is worst for the villages, and one of the worst for wildlife.
2. SUPPORT
the short-bypass ALIGNMENT of Beige (or Cyan) - or Do Nothing
3. COMMENT (in the text box):
NOT 70mph dual carriageway;
MUST BE 40mph wide-single carriageway:
the "Arundel Alternative".
