Extreme weather is putting the South West’s transport and energy networks under growing strain. In this episode of Beyond Brunel, Claire Gibson and Katy Toms explore how nature-based solutions can strengthen resilience while improving landscapes and biodiversity.
They’re joined by Dave Slater, South West Regional Director at Natural England, and Tim Youngs, Project Director for Connecting the Culm and Manager of the Blackdown Hills National Landscape Partnership, who offer a practical view of how working with natural processes can protect communities, assets and ecosystems across the South West. The conversation covers funding challenges, farmer engagement, planning barriers, and why nature-first approaches need to become mainstream in infrastructure planning.
From the South West Infrastructure Partnership, supported by ICE South West.
