<p>Syndicate caring for St Peter's Wood Ringland Norfolk England, national stronghold of endangered Barbastelle bat, under threat from 4 lane road & viaduct project 'Norwich Western Link Road'; in reality the attempted completion of a 3 mile section of 3rd concentric ring road around 1000+year old City of Norwich, the true purpose of which is to demark the next shell/zone for infill for local Tory 'vision' of 'Greater Norwich'. Recent respite in 2025, but threat remains, so we campaign on.</p>

The South Norwich data centre entrepreneurs want to drink the milkshake of the citizens of the City of Norwich and County of Norfolk. The ancient mineral waters of the chalk-fed rivers Wensum and Yare, pure and lifegiving and welling up since the ice age. They demonstrate utter contempt for the communal asset that is drinking water. Cleaned at our collective expensive to cool your computers? No way! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cpv3w39gv9ro

https://www.edp24.co.uk/news/26181784.reform-get-cracking-norwich-western-link-revival/ This is not about roads. It is about defining the third shell of new-builds around the City for the developers&#39; &quot;vision&quot; of &quot;Greater Norwich&quot;. Acres of charmless estates, ready-blighted by the 24 hour high speed trunk roads from which the salesmen try to hide views of the passing juggernauts behind high fences. Those issuing the contracts, &quot;in the know&...

The Norfolk Tory Roadies controlling Norfolk County Council now face election in May and know they will be out on their ears, so along comes news they have (gracelessly) abandoned the Wreckage-on-Steriods that was represented by their dual-carriageway-on-viaduct crossing of the Wensum Valley floodplain at Ringland, and in comes early word, still lacking detail, of a modest single-carriage upgrade to existing routes.

"[Sue] Gray stands for ethics, public service, and integrity. All three of these qualities are, indeed, baffling and contemptible to hucksters like McSweeney, and the excitable and amoral young men who surround him.
