Sustainability Best Practice Case Study Delivering Net Gain Outcomes for Biodiversity
Sustainability Best Practice Case Study Delivering net gain outcomes for biodiversity The Network Rail Thameslink Programme was the first Network Rail Infrastructure Project to achieve ‘net gain’ outcomes for biodiversity. Its approach to deliver biodiversity net gain was named as a demonstration project by Defra and received wide acclaim, including from the Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment and from Natural England. The Thameslink Programme’s approach to deliver biodiversity net gain has been rolled out to Network Rail Infrastructure Projects. This case study sets out how the Thameslink Programme achieved biodiversity net gain through the application of good practice. A sustainable Thameslink Programme The Network Rail (NR) Thameslink Programme (TLP) will transform travel north to south through London. When Thameslink completes in 2018, journeys and connections will be improved giving customers better travel options to more destinations than ever before. Its modern track and trains will make journeys more reliable. Sustainability is at the heart of the TLP’s vision, which is to ‘deliver transport benefits to budget that represents value for money and creates an overall positive impact on the community and the environment’. To do this the TLP aimed to ensure that not only does it achieve the highest standards in sustainability, but it upholds this principle on all fronts. As part of its sustainability drive, the TLP committed to “enhance our habitat footprint to achieve a net biodiversity gain via the mitigation hierarchy”. This recognised the importance of habitats along the railway corridor for nature conservation and was founded on the TLP’s commitment to create an overall positive effect on the environment.

Barnet Plateau
3. Barnet Plateau Key plan Description The Barnet Plateau Natural Landscape Area is part of a plateau of higher land on the north-west rim of the London Basin. The area extends eastwards to the Dollis Brook through East Barnet, southwards as far as the Brent Reservoir, and westwards to the River Crane. It covers a large and very varied area. The underlying geology is dominated by London Clay, but in the northern (and higher) part of the Natural Landscape Area, the summits are defined by more coarse grained, younger rocks of the Claygate Member, and further south a couple of outlying hills are capped by 3.

The plateau slopes within the northern part of the Landscape Area may have been shaped by periglacial erosion following the Anglian glacier advance in the Finchley area to the east. The early settlement cores (Stanmore, Harrow, Hadley and Horsenden) are linked by the extensive urban areas of Barnet, Edgware, Kenton, To the north there are patches of farmland with rectangular fields Further south, the built up areas are frequently punctuated by patches Wembley and Greenford.
