Lincolnshire County Council could be burdened with a £4.3 million bill for the development of a bat bridge in North Hykeham. The scheme, which aims to conserve local wildlife, forms part of wider efforts to safeguard natural habitats whilst enabling necessary infrastructural advancements. The proposed structure would provide a safe passage for bats to traverse the bustling roads, ensuring their migratory behaviours remain uninterrupted. The council is presently assessing the financial ramifications of the project and scouring for potential funding avenues to back this unique environmental initiative.
