How the elections could impact housing and A303 traffic

The candidates were challenged to give short answers to a few Wiltshire issues – including the A303 traffic.

It has been a decades-long argument and the government has now ditched the plans to build a tunnel past Stonehenge.

All acknowledged the problem and a couple suggested alternatives, but the Conservative's Richard Clewer was the only one wanting to lobby to get the tunnel "back on the table".

On Wiltshire Council's commitment to going net zero by 2030, all parties backed it – except for Reform. Edward Kirk said: "I don't think it's achievable and I don't think it's value for money."
