Poland reverses to spare wetland
Poland has proposed a new route for a disputed motorway to save a pristine wetland, the environment minister says.
"It appears there is an alternative... which is less expensive and just 2km [1.2 miles] longer than the originally planned route," Maciej Nowicki said.
The European Union took legal steps in 2007 to block construction of the road through the Rospuda valley, a protected wildlife area.
