CPRE's Position on Telecommunications Development
CPRE is concerned that the countryside is suffering unacceptably and unnecessarily as a result of telecommunications development. We do not object in principle to the development of national telecommunications networks. We recognise the possible environmental benefits, such as a reduced need to travel, that they may bring. But the impact on the countryside of such networks needs to be minimised.
