      And will Batman be paying for this? I hear he’s actually billionaire Bruce Wayne so he can afford it.

      I personally don’t mind building infrastructure that protects wildlife. Wildlife protection is not the reason why the country is in the state it is in.

      So, green NIBMY drained taxpayers’ money once again.

      >It said that a ‘bat bridge’ must be put in place on a grassed-over bridge near the South Hykeham section of the road to ensure that the bats don’t fly into traffic.

      Bats famously have terrible hearing so fly into traffic all the time.

      The UK government wanted to reform planning laws to get rid of this sort of thing, but the EU said it breach the level playing field part of the Brexit trade agreement.

      1. We should stop fucking up nature. Britain has devastatingly poor nature – one of the most nature deprived countries in the world. What is left is clinging on by its paw tips.

      2. The evidence for bat bridges is, at best, sparce. You can’t rely on them to mitigate barbastelle colony damage. 

      3. Barbastelle’s are a tricky species to mitigate harm to because they need 50 year old forest, so you can’t exactly just plant some trees. 

      So yeah, its tricky.

      I don’t know the solution in this case, but for a similar scheme in Norwich the solution as far as I could see was ‘investigate if you still need massive new roads if you invest the £200 million or so into proper walking, cycling and public transport provision’.

      I’m fine with wildlife crossings being in place. No different from what some other countries are doing

      I don’t object, but there’s a related Auto Shenanigans – https://youtu.be/tdPZ4z1OS0E?si=Ypps83NMgFiKYqxX

      How much harm to bats or wildlife is acceptable to working towards solving other issues facing society? Is any?
