1. If there are known sites which will be damaged/destroyed/affected, then on what scale and how can that be mitigated (or avoided)?
2. If there are unknown sites, aren't these of little value until they're excavated/researched anyway?
There may be economic or ecological reasons to oppose it, but if point 1 is correctly managed then I don't see any reason to oppose it for archaeological reasons...point 2 will provide jobs and lead back into point 1 anyway.
