正文(英文) | Network Rail strategy to protect and enhance the UK’s lineside environment released.
The Department for Transport (DfT) has set out a clear strategy for how it expects Network Rail to protect and enhance the UK’s lineside environment, while ensuring the safety of passengers and services. The strategy follows recommendations from the independently chaired review led by John Varley, a non-executive director of the Environment Agency. First commissioned by the department in May 2018 to look at Network Rail’s lineside vegetation management, Valuing nature – a railway for people and wildlife, has outlined a number of proposals to protect and increase biodiversity. The new policy has been drawn up in collaboration with the Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs’ 25 Year Environment Plan. This ambitious document challenges Network Rail to achieve no net loss in biodiversity across the network by 2024, deliver a net gain in biodiversity by 2040 and produce a vision statement and biodiversity action plan by December 2019 detailing how it will meet these goals. These targets build on the good practice Network Rail already deploy across the network to ensure vegetation does not delay journeys. Rail Minister, Andrew Jones, said:
