Woodhouse Washlands river restoration

The objectives of this project are to improve the river habitats to enhance Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) priority species populations, enhance fish populations and improve the river habitats to meet the required Water Framework Directive (WFD).
In addition, it will benefit the physical and ecological conditions in the river by improving in-channel and riparian habitat features.
We wish to install berm features to reduce river channel width and increase its diversity, reprofile the bank to enhance floodplain habitat and construct bunds on the floodplain to create ephemeral ponds.
