Written question asked by John Hayes (Conservative) on Tuesday, 25 February 2025, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Thursday, 27 February 2025. It was answered by Lilian Greenwood (Labour) on Wednesday, 5 March 2025 on behalf of the Department for Transport.
Roads: Hedgehogs
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many hedgehog crossing signs have been installed on roads in England in the last three years.
- Answer
-
The Department authorised the use of the small wild animal sign in December 2023, giving local authorities permission to place the sign without reference to the Department. Prior to this none of these signs had been authorised. The Department does not hold information on how many signs are installed by local authorities.
There are no plans to encourage local authorities to install these signs, it is entirely a matter for local authorities to decide upon.
