Changes will help protect crossing routes for hedgehogs and other small animals, particularly on rural roads in England.
New rule changes announced on December 22, 2023, will simplify the process for local authorities to install wildlife warning signs, helping drivers identify hotspots and protect small animals like hedgehogs. More signs could boost wildlife numbers and reduce harm. This initiative aims to better protect hedgehogs and other small animals on English roads, making it easier for local authorities to safeguard wildlife from hazards.
