Green Connectivity Study for New Forest National Park

The New Forest National Park Authority is seeking a qualified consultant to conduct a comprehensive four-part study examining opportunities to improve ecological connectivity in and around the New Forest National Park. The study will focus on two key objectives: connecting areas outside the park boundary to land within the park, and linking fragmented habitats within the park's core that are currently separated by major roads. Work will include site visits, analysis of existing maps and plans, and identification of realistic connectivity methods such as wildlife corridors or crossing infrastructure. The budget is £80,000-£100,000, with higher investment requiring demonstrated added value through innovative solutions or enhanced recommendations.
