During this webinar, the report’s authors will highlight the terrestrial ecological issues affecting rural and urban road systems across Canada, and some emerging solutions to challenges such as wildlife-vehicle collisions, restoration of connective habitats, management of pollinator habitats, naturalization of rights-of-way, and permafrost warming.
