If the “Save Port Meadow” campaigners are really concerned about environmental impact, then they should now campaign vigorously to divert the A34. The continuous noise pollution from this road has a far bigger impact on the environment of the meadow,than the occasional view of the Castle Mill flats.

It might cost tens of millions of pounds and a few hundred people would have to be rehoused, but that shouldn’t be a problem for them. If I am not mistaken, that is what they are already proposing for the Castle Mill development.
