The Newbury Bypass was built 25 years ago this month, and was one of the most controversial road building programmes in the Thames Valley.
It cost more than £100 million to construct and was designed to take busy traffic away from the town.
The plan was to construct a new road around Newbury, which had become a notorious traffic bottle neck. But that meant cutting through areas of countryside, which the protestors were determined to protect.

Lawsuit says San Dieguito district is violating state rules over reopening during while county remains in purple tier
In the court petition filed Friday, Dec. 18, the union says
the district’s plan violates state rules because the state forbids schools from reopening if they did not reopen before the county fell into the most restrictive preventive stage, dubbed the purple tier. San Diego County has been in the purple tier since Nov. 10.
The San Dieguito Union High School Board voted last week to reopen schools starting in January, despite warnings from district administrators, the teachers union and others that there won’t be enough staff and that the reopening violates state rules.
The board voted 3-2 late Tuesday night to offer all students one-day-a-week, in-person instruction starting Jan. 4, and five-days-a-week in-person instruction starting Jan. 27.
The board voted at 11 p.m., after receiving hundreds of public comments from students, parents and teachers arguing for or against reopening next month.
San Dieguito serves about 12,900 middle and high school students at 10 schools.

Many parents told the district that their children are suffering socially, emotionally and academically during school closures. Some said it’s not fair that other schools in the San Diego area have been open for months.
