Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the implementation of the proposed details on habitat sites

What decided it

The construction environmental management plan's mitigation measures—restricting works to daylight hours, directing lighting away from identified habitats and commuting routes, and avoiding hedgerow removal—would prevent harm to the Barbastelle and Bechstein's bats that are the qualifying features of the Singleton and Cocking Tunnels SAC.
