This petition was submitted during the 2017–2019 Conservative government
Petition Do not grant consent for Esso’s Southampton to London Pipeline DCO
The government must reject the current Development Consent Order because the proposed route and the methods by which the pipeline will be installed are too destructive of nature, trees, wildlife, communities and open spaces.
More details
The route chosen by Esso is excessively destructive of woodland and natural spaces, felling trees and inflicting major disruption on communities, schools and leisure facilities along the entire length.
The local adverse impacts outweigh the benefits of the project. If Esso don’t change their application to address these serious issues, it must be rejected.
This petition concerns the entire pipeline but details of one of the sites affected by it are here: https://queenelizabethpark.net
