About This Book

"This book is a review of the ecological effects of roads. These effects include pollution, impacts on plant and animal habitats and disturbance to ecological systems. Many animals are killed by traffic. More importantly, new roads fragment natural habitats. By far the greatest effects are the cumulative effects over time.".

"This is a textbook for students and a manual for the practitioner. It provides a detailed account of the methods used to address the ecological effects of roads. Controversial in parts (e.g. it is argued that some roads should be decommissioned), this book will prompt much discussion and will prompt action to prevent the damaging effects of roads on nature."--BOOK JACKET.
