In 1998 all the key stakeholders in the Stonehenge World Heritage Site agreed to:

• Remove the roads and traffic from the area near the Stones
• Improve the landscape by returning it to chalk downland
• Provide better access and a new visitor centre

We are sponsoring and partly funding two projects designed to deliver on these pledges.

These are:

• The A303 Stonehenge Improvement.
  Following a consultation process, this project is currently under review and its final form remains undecided
• Construction of the new Visitor Centre.  A consultation process on the planning application concluded in May 2006 and a decision is expected from Salisbury District Council in July 2006

The Heritage Lottery Fund , English Heritage and The National Trust  are co-funding the developments.
