What we are doing

We will be creating ecological mitigation ponds surrounded by grassland and woodland habitat creation on land to the north of Uttoxeter Road Bilthbury. We will use the ecological mitigation ponds to relocate any protected species such as great crested newts before we need to remove any other habitats.

Before we start to construct the ponds, we will improve the existing access off Uttoxeter Road by removing the existing vegetation at the
entrance and replacing it with ridged plastic mats. This is so we can bring large equipment on to the land to carry out the pond work. To do this safely, we will put two-way traffic lights in place along Uttoxeter Road.

We will put the temporary traffic lights in place for one day on Tuesday 16 August from 9am to 5pm.
