A British court overturned government approval for the construction of a controversial road tunnel close to the Stonehenge stone circle.

UNESCO had warned the road tunnel put at risk Stonehenge's World Heritage Site statusLONDON - A British court on Friday overturned government approval for the construction of a controversial road tunnel close to the Stonehenge stone circle, following opposition from historians, archaeologists and druids.

The High Court ruled in favour of a judicial review and threw out consent for the road-building project given by the Secretary of State for Transport, Grant Shapps, in November 2020. Highways England had applied for permission in 2018 to build a new 13-kilometre section of an existing main road, including a new 3.3 kilometre tunnel.Historian Tom Holland, who has campaigned against the plan, tweeted that the decision was"wonderful news".

Shapps last year opted to ignore the advice of a panel of expert planning inspectors who recommended refusing the application. He said the benefits of the scheme outweighed its disadvantages.
