Doesn't that happen with any archeological dig? Artifacts are carefully exposed, recorded and removed therefore can't be re-examined in situ there after. It would only be walls etc that would be left in the ground and what could be re-examined that couldn't be done from samples taken at the time of the dig?
A). It’s not just any site.
Not sure uhd, full colour gpr will ever be available.
My understanding is that the road running past Stonehenge is very likely the original road (or rather built on top of the original road) that ran past Stonehenge at the time, running down to Devon / Cornwall iirc. As mentioned, the stones are just one part of the whole ritual landscape, so it would have needed a decent road to service all of what was going on there generally.
The Lane still goes right up to the henge...still has some free party people camped on it who refuse to leave too
Like what?
The A303 follows the route of the Harrow Way, which dates back to somewhere between 600–450 BC, possibly an ancient path to Stonehenge. The current route was laid out in the early 19th century as the New Direct Road, a coaching route from London to Exeter. It fell into disuse with the rise of the railways, but was revived as a major road in 1933. No-one gave a shit about a road running past Stonehenge on any of those dates. It's now one of the main routes to the south west.

you say that but our ancestors foresaw just this and started work on the car park in around 8800 BC (see diagram below)
That says they've already extracted pollen and even DNA from samples. How much smaller do you need to go? Individual atoms? Even those could be obtained from existing samples.Briefing 3: Archaeology at risk - Save Stonehenge World Heritage Site
What we know of the WHS today can be considered, in part, as probably a ritualistic designed landscape. Many of the deliberately constructed elements might have been intended to be inter-visible to emphasise, and use, the topography. Neolithic long barrows in the western part of the WHS are...
I now think the road should be closed forever.That says they've already extracted pollen and even DNA from samples. How much smaller do you need to go? Individual atoms? Even those could be obtained from existing samples.
And never find out what's down there.
. Before they closed the side road that was a useful bypass. I go across the plain when i can to avoid it but that can be as busy sometimes, it's lethal in the winter and you need to avoid tanks.
If Croydon is the answer you are asking the wrong questions.
I drive past Stonehenge at least once a week. Something needs to change, be it tunnel, new road, bridge, teleportation, whatever. Its the main route to Devon/Cornwall and its gridlocked in the summer - a main route that's single carriageway past the henge
Now, now; home town to a number of Urbz
It’s not cut and cover, it’s a bored tunnel. The only bits you could class as cut and cover will be the portals.

The members of the fictitious band I created for some English project at school were Michael Wood, Lee Delamere and Brent Knoll. The latter is now Sedgemoor I think, was just a rest area back in the day with nothing but bogs.
