Why not carry out a series of improvements to the existing A380?

0

A On-line improvements to the A380 were considered as part of the A380 Corridor Study undertaken in 2000. This study included a full survey of existing traffic, public transport usage and pedestrians and cyclists in the area, together with surveys to understand where people were travelling from, their destination and the reasons for their choice of travel mode. The study developed 34 different options for improving the impacts caused by vehicle travel in the corridor and four of these options were improvements to the existing A380 through Kingskerswell. The study concluded that “the scale of works required would be severe and would require acquisition of substantial land from residential properties and some demolition along the line of the route. The road would have severe environmental impact, in terms of noise, visual intrusion, and severance creating a major barrier to movement within the village. Therefore this option has been rejected”.
