  • From: Melksham Rail User Group To: “Melksham Bypass Consultation” Date: 16Th January 2021
    From: Melksham Rail User Group To: “Melksham Bypass Consultation” Date: 16th January 2021 Dear Sirs, Input to current "A350 Melksham Bypass" consultation from the Melksham Rail User Group Thank you for the early opportunity to provide input into the "A350 Melksham Bypass" consultation process. This input is written on behalf of the Melksham Rail User Group and was unanimously adopted at the group meeting on Wednesday 13th January 2021. 1. Please consider the Melksham Rail User Group and the TransWilts Community Rail Partnerships as stakeholders and consultees throughout this process 2. We commend options 4 and 5 (rail and bus) public transport and option 6 (cycle and walking) improvements, and note that they score very highly on deliverability, affordability and acceptability. Whilst they are unlikely to meet your objectives on their own, they should provide a valuable and significant element implemented as thoroughly as practical in any solution 3. Please look at alternative of long distance traffic routing via the already Highways England / Trunk A46/A36 route rather than by increasing capacity on the regional A350 (you have confirmed you can add other options at this stage). 4. Please take a look at the alternative of rail use for longer distance freight and medium and longer passenger traffic via the TransWilts railway line which parallels the A350 road. 5. Please ensure that any railway crossings (options 9a, 9b, 9c, 8a and 8b) allow for the line to be restored to a double track such that trains can path both ways under or over the bridge at the same time. Please rule out level crossings at each point that rail and road cross.

    Subject: Unexplained Lights Later in the night a red sun/ike light was seen through the trees. It moved about and pulsed. At one point it appeared to throw offglowing particles and then broke into five separate white objects and then disappeared. Immediately thereafter, three starlike objects were noticed in the sky, two objects to the north and one to the south, all of which were about 1 oo offthe horizon. The objects moved rapidly in sharp angular movements and displayed red, green and blue lights. The objects to the north appeared to be elliptical through an 8-12 power lens. Then they turned to full circles. The objects to the north remained in the sky for an hour or more. The object to the south was visible for two or three hours and beamed down a stream of light from time to time.
