Why does biodiversity matter?
This section is in development
What can you do?
Most of the biodiversity work currently being carried out by the Highways Agency is site-based conservation work, often aimed at encouraging the development of diverse and/or valuable habitats, and the continued existence of particular species.
Some of these projects are related to new road building or improvement schemes, while others are specific road verge conservation projects or research contracts. However, these projects tend to be relatively local in their scope as individual projects.
The Highways Agency does a lot of work to promote sustainable development and protect the environment through its Knowledge Centre. It also provides advice notes, design and contract guidance/manuals and standards.
