Save the Gwent Levels

The Welsh Assembly Government wants to build a new motorway across the Gwent Levels. More road building and more traffic will lead to more climate changing emissions.

Friends of the Earth thinks this road shouldn't get the go-ahead because it will:

Endanger one of our top wetland wildlife sites
Create more traffic problems not less
Waste money that could be spent on much needed local public transport

The motorway would destroy much of the protected wildlife sites on the Gwent Levels
The Gwent Levels is a key habitat for many species

We should invest in transport solutions that don't contribute to climate change.

E-mail your Assembly Member to demand that they put pressure on the Minister for Economic Development and Transport to stop the road being built.
