“A short-sighted scheme that threatens climate and nature”

The Unseen Price of the Lower Thames Crossing The Lower Thames Crossing has been promoted as a solution to congestion and a boost to the economy, but at what cost?

If we fail to consider these factors now, we risk paying a far greater price in the future.
