Norfolk CC ignored warnings, wasted £56M of public funds, and failed to plan a viable Plan B for the Western Link. Blaming bats & Natural England is deflection. We demand accountability & resignations. Norfolk deserves better—enough is enough. www.edp24.co.uk/news/2497154...

Norfolk deserves better. With NWL planning withdrawn & likely binned, it’s time to move past outdated, costly road schemes. David Pett says, “Transport East's road focus is naive & dated. Norfolk needs sustainable, integrated transport for real growth. #StopWensumLink www.edp24.co.uk/news/2496141...

Traffic issues in Norfolk aren't just west of Norwich—they impact us all. We need a county-wide plan that improves all roads, boosts public transport, and aligns transport with planning. Let's prioritise fair, sustainable solutions for everyone. #NorfolkTransport #BetterPlanning

We call for a Plan B to tackle congestion west of Norwich—one that prioritises economic sense & environmental care. Protecting the River Wensum SAC & species like barbastelle bats must be central. Let's rethink, reset, & find smarter, sustainable solutions. www.edp24.co.uk/news/2494871...

Great sense here www.facebook.com/reel/1150485... from @steffanaquarone.bsky.social We need very different leadership in Norfolk & Suffolk, or devolution will only keep those who made the mess in power 👇 @stopwensumlink.bsky.social @transportaction.bsky.social

youtu.be/JPKdo2wDQ9A?... The damage caused by this road construction is tragic, but it’s nothing compared to the destruction the Norwich Western Link would bring—devastating trees, countryside, River Wensum SAC and wildlife. Once lost, nature doesn’t come back. #StopNWLink #SaveOurEnvironment

I stand with John Allaway too - Billig should be barred from public office. Utterly unfit @norfolkcc.bsky.social

Further reasons for RESIGNATIONS as Norfolk CC take a budget risk with over £30m when the odds are very much stacked against the Govt agreeing the NWL road @stopwensumlink.bsky.social @transportaction.bsky.social @jamierussell.bsky.social Hair already blazing on fire ... (read article👇)

We stand with John Allaway in exposing NCC’s failures on the NWL project. Flawed surveys, negligence, and deceit have destroyed trust. We demand Cllr. Mason Billig resign immediately. #StopWensumLink #Accountability #EnvironmentalProtection

Norfolk County Council blaming bats for the NWL fiasco is absurd. This project failed due to mismanagement, zero economic justification, and reckless environmental harm. Taxpayers deserve accountability, not excuses. Norfolk needs leadership that prioritizes people, sustainability, and transparency.

The councillors know Marriott's Park was never tied to the NWL. Linking the two is a desperate move to revive a scrapped road project. This isn’t about housing or traffic—it’s about clinging to a failed plan. www.edp24.co.uk/news/2487872...

The Prime minister saying that newts and bats cannot be allowed to get in the way of providing the housing, roads and hospitals that this country needs shows a fundamental failure to understand the problems with the planning system and how they originate from austerity. cieem.net/prime-minist...

Norfolk CC falsely blames Natural England for #WesternLink delays. FACT: Mary Creagh's letter proves NE warned for YEARS about the damage to wildlife & poor surveys. The failure? Council’s mismanagement. We demand an inquiry & Cllr Billig's resignation. #StopWensumLink

More planning nonsense from the government. - people have a democratic right to a say about land use change - this will lead to worse outcomes environmentally & ecologically - endless economic growth is a dubious goal in a world where we are hitting limits www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Calling Jerome Mayhew MP out Natural England is not an “unelected quango.” It’s a govt body upholding laws passed to protect wildlife & habitats. Undermining environmental safeguards for quick infrastructure gains is reckless,not progress. www.edp24.co.uk/news/2487317...

Some good news on an otherwise bleak day. I’ve been campaigning in various ways for about six years, maybe more, against this road. It has, at times, been exhausting, but I have also found purpose through it and met the most inspiring people. It’s probably not over yet, but for now, some relief!

The council like to claim they were blindsided by Natural England last year over the Barbastelle Bats, but they have been warned for years, by a variety of experts, concerned landowners, and Natural England. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

At last! The cost implications would be huge if Norfolk County Council presses on with this project. A new planning application would mean more surveys and cost. This project should never have reached planning stage to begin with!

This is very good news. Another major set back for this destructive project. Many reasons (climate, cost) why it should not proceed. Most of all a rare and small species has been protected in a unique environment against almost inevitable local extinction. Long live the barbastelle bat

Great news! Norfolk County Council has withdrawn the Norwich Western Link planning application! 🎉 David Pett says, “A victory for our environment & a greener Norfolk. We urge the council to focus on sustainable solutions.” 🌿 #StopWensumLink #ProtectNature #SustainableFuture

@norfolkcc.bsky.social must restore public trust. We call for an independent inquiry to uncover missteps in the Norwich Western Link project, ensure accountability, and prevent future failures. "An inquiry is crucial for transparency," says campaigner David Pett. #StopWensumLink #Accountability

Thank you for your unwavering support in fighting against the Norwich Western Link Road this year. Together, we've shown the power of community! 🌟 Rest, recharge & let’s keep the fight alive in 2025. 🌍 Wishing you a joyful Christmas & a hopeful New Year! 🎄✨ #StopTheLink

The Norwich Western Link is more than just an expensive mistake—it's a full-scale attack on our environment. Public funds wasted, nature destroyed. Is this the legacy we want to leave behind? #StopWensumLink #ProtectNature #EnvironmentalJustice

Kay Mason Billig’s attack on Natural England is an unnecessary, damaging distraction from Norfolk's road disaster. Wasted funds, ignored nature, failed leadership. It’s time for her resignation. #StopWensumLink www.edp24.co.uk/news/2476504...

The NWL isn't happening. Parish councils must accept this & focus on Plan B. Protect our villages, respect the environment, & invest in smarter traffic solutions like public transport & cycling. Stop wasting funds on a project that destroys more than it solves. #NWL www.edp24.co.uk/news/2475500...

Hats off to Stop the Wensum Link and other campaign groups. Through unwavering dedication, they’ve halted the destructive Norwich Western Link project—a triumph for wildlife, sustainability & smarter alternatives. Proof that grassroots action can drive real change! 🌍🦇 #Sustainability

Norfolk CC's NWL project has been a failure of epic proportions—ignored warnings, botched surveys, wasted millions & endangered barbastelle bats. Natural England isn’t to blame. We demand accountability & the immediate resignation of Kay Mason Billig & leaders behind this fiasco.

👇From @stopwensumlink.bsky.social Remarkable when so often 'wins' happen for wrong reasons. THIS PAUSE to this destructive road project is coming about FOR ONCE for the right reasons - upholding environmental protection 😀If we win this, we win for the right reasons @transportaction.bsky.social

Norfolk County Council's NWL road project is on hold—too little, too late. Years of warnings ignored, millions wasted, and now they blame bats. Time for resignations and real accountability for this catastrophic mismanagement. Stop the shambles. #NorwichWesternLink #Accountability

🧵 1️⃣ Norfolk County Council have put the Norwich Western Link "on hold" today. First we celebrate - one more step towards towards the end of this road @stopwensumlink.bsky.social Those who kept the project going at £27,000/day -for years and against the evidence- MUST NOW RESIGN 👇

Norfolk County Council (UK East Anglia) is a dinosaur council that systemically works in the opposite direction to environmental progress Good to see this call for NCC to #StopWensumLink (a devastating road project) @stopwensumlink.bsky.social and align with #COP15 "30by30" commitment 👇

Urgent action needed! Halt the Norwich Western Link to safeguard the River Wensum SAC and fulfill the UK's #30by30UK commitment. Protect our natural heritage now! #StopWensumLink #BiodiversityConservation

Stop Wensum Link Campaign calls on Norfolk County Council to halt the Norwich Western Link project. Financial waste, public opposition, and environmental neglect highlighted in the 'Regulation 25' letter demand sustainable alternatives! #StopWensumLink #EnvironmentalJustice
