I have emailed ramblers@ramblers.org.uk about this now. If you are a member (you sound in the know) maybe you could too?

I have no idea, but hope it will be financially painful!

They don't yet have planning permission, yet the destruction of animal habitat has already started. There has been NO consultation with those most directly affected. There has been NO environmental impact assessment. The bulldozers have been there for the last two days and you can see the plumes of smoke from the pile of resulting scrubbed-up hedgerow from a distance. This is truly shocking!
