The local environmentWe’ve been working with RSK, our environmental consultants, for nearly four years, carrying out surveys of the local environment.
Ecology
By identifying the flora and fauna that could be affected by construction work, we’ve been able to put measures in place and use special construction methods to protect them.
Hedge netting for breeding birds Badger sett mitigations
Great Crested Newt fencing Bat boxes
Archaeology
We’ve completed a number of archaeological assessments, including reviewing existing historic information, geophysical surveys and targetedtrial trenching of identified anomalies and areas of higher potential of archaeological finds. During construction, an archaeologist will be on-site monitoring the works and keeping a record of any findings, which will be analysed and the results shared with local historic groups.
