Abstract
There is increasing public and regulatory pressure on civil engineers to retain or replace established wildlife habitats during project design and delivery. However, they can also be moved. Habitat translocation is an effective and long-standing technique that can be used to rescue or salvage homes for wildlife which would otherwise be lost. This paper presents three case studies which demonstrate how civil engineers can successfully translocate and retain habitats on site, albiet in different locations, resulting in wide-ranging project benefits.
