However, the wildlife trust believes these objections will not be taken into account by planners when deciding whether the option should be included in the new planning blueprint, which will guide development in the borough over the next decade and beyond.
The proposed route of the link road goes through parts of the Orwell Country Park and the trust claims it would weaken the wildlife value of the adjacent Pipers Vale nature reserve and Ipswich's only ancient woodland, Braziers Wood.
The trust disclosed yesterday that nightingales and linnets - both nationally declining species - were now breeding at Elm Hill, which is on the line of the route.
Dr Simone Bullion, the trust's senior conservation officer, said: “Wildlife habitat would be fragmented and sites of local, regional and national importance, including two County Wildlife Sites and Ipswich's only ancient woodland would be utterly destroyed.”
Dr Bullion said a go-ahead for the road would set a dangerous precedent and would be at odds with the environmental achievements of the borough council and Suffolk County Council.
“The effects of this link road cannot be mitigated for and, in effect, will ensure a downgrading of the overall natural quality of this area.
“Whilst we are not opposed to the principle of improved access around the port we do not feel that the link road can be justified.
“Nor do we believe it would be effective in addressing the current traffic problems. In fact, further retail development associated with the proposed road would add to, not reduce, existing congestion,” she added.
The wildlife trust estimates that the nature areas which would be affected by the link road comprise a quarter of the entire wildlife area within the borough boundaries.
Members of the public have until July 24 to register their views about the new development framework. " EADT Saturday 15th July 2006

That is only seven working days. I have been posting about this for some time now so please take notice now and register your objections or there will soon be no Orwell Country Park/Bridgewood or Brazierswood left.
