9 Executive Summary The report presents the findings of a bat activity survey of the proposed Birmingham Eastside Extension (BEE) to support an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and future Transport and Works Act Order (TWAO) application. The bat activity survey was commissioned following the formal EIA Scoping Opinion response from Birmingham City Council (BCC) which raised concerns over the proximity of the BEE route to a historic bat roost and the potential impact of the BEE on bats in the local area. The bat activity surveys comprised manual bat transect surveys on a monthly basis between May and August The bat surveys broadly followed good practice Bat Surveys for Professional Ecologists: Good Practice Guidelines (3 rd Edition) (Collins, 2016), although the required static detector surveys could not be completed due to the open and publically accessible nature of the area within the vicinity of the BEE route. The field surveys and desk study indicated that the area within the vicinity of the BEE route supports very low levels of common pipistrelle bats, with only a single recording of bat activity observed during over eight hours of survey time. The single bat observation was from the section of the BEE route adjacent to Eastside City Park. Only a small amount of vegetation is due to be lost due to the BEE as the Survey Extent Boundary is heavily urbanised, and there will be very little change to the urban landscape through development; there is unlikely to be a significant impact on bat activity levels. Additionally, as the BEE route is already well illuminated, and activity levels are very low, the proposed increases in lighting as part of the BEE are unlikely to detrimentally impact on overall bat activity levels. The combination of positive enhancement for bats through new landscape planting, and recommended mitigation outlined in this report, has the potential to benefit bat activity at a local scale. i

11 1 Introduction 1.1 Project Background Mott MacDonald was commissioned by West Midland Combined Authority in May 2016 to undertake a bat activity survey of the proposed Birmingham Eastside Extension (BEE) tramway route to support an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and future Transport and Works Act Order (TWAO) application. The bat activity survey was commissioned following the formal EIA Scoping Opinion (see ES Volume 2 Technical Appendix) response from Birmingham City Council (BCC) which raised concerns over the proximity of the BEE route to a historic bat roost and the potential impact of the BEE on bats in the local area. 1.2 BEE Description The BEE involves the construction and operation of 1.9km of tramway starting from the BCCE at Bull Street/Corporation Street providing a new link to the proposed HS2 Station at Curzon Street and Birmingham Coach Station, terminating at High Street Deritend to the east of Birmingham City Centre between Rea Street and Floodgate Street. The route of the BEE is shown in Appendix A. The BEE route commences at the junction with the BCCE at Bull Street and Corporation Street running southeast along Bull Street. The route then crosses the southern end of Dale End and runs into New Meeting Street via an area of land that is currently occupied by a building on Kings Parade, Dale End which will need to be demolished. The route then continues northeast along Albert Street, where there will be a tram stop, crosses Moor Street Queensway and Park Street, where the route turns south to connect with the proposed HS2 Curzon Street Station where there will be a second tram stop. The route then runs south along New Canal Street which continues into Meriden Street with a tram stop at the junction with Bordesley Street before turning eastwards onto High Street Deritend, where a building will need to be demolished. From here, the BEE will run in the centre of the carriageway and terminate on High Street Deritend at a stop located between Rea Street and Floodgate Street. However, the track will be constructed as far as the junction with Heath Mill Lane to allow for a tram turnback and lay over facility and to facilitate a future extension towards Birmingham Airport. Associated highway works will continue as far as the junction with Adderley Street. For the purpose of this report, the Survey Extent Boundary is shown in Appendix B. The area within the Survey Extent Boundary measures approximately 11ha and comprises both permanent and temporary land areas that will be required in order to construct, maintain and operate the BEE. 1.3 BEE Context The BEE route will run through the areas of Digbeth and the Eastside Quarter of Birmingham. Birmingham City Council (BCC) has longstanding plans for further investment and regeneration of Digbeth and the Eastside Quarter and these are reflected in the emerging Birmingham Development Plan, Big City Plan and Curzon Masterplan. They involve maximising the benefits arising from improved connectivity and investment in HS2 and associated commercial, retail and residential developments. 1

12 The BEE route passes through a part of Birmingham that has a strong historical connection to industry and commerce and so has an urban character made up of warehouses and other commercial buildings. However, some of these have been converted to alternative uses including small studio offices, arts spaces and apartments. The BEE route runs along High Street Deritend which is a busy dual carriageway. This road is a main route for buses connecting the City Centre to the south and east of the city including routes along and off the A4540 Inner Ring Road as well as routes along the A45 towards Birmingham Airport and the National Exhibition Centre (NEC). The BEE will run past major redevelopment sites including the proposed HS2 Curzon Street Station, which is expected to receive Royal Assent in December

13 2 Methodology 2.1 Scope of the Report The Preliminary Ecological Appraisal (ES Volume 2 Technical Appendix T2) identified the BEE route as having low ecological value overall, including low potential foraging habitat for bats. Based on this assessment no further bat activity surveys were initially recommended; however, BCC, through the formal EIA Scoping Report (ES Volume 2 Technical Appendix I), raised concerns over the potential impact of the proposed works on foraging bats; in particular the effect of increased lighting along the BEE route on a historic bat roost in the vicinity of the BEE. As such a bat activity survey has been undertaken which is comprised from two phases: a desk study consultation exercise; and nocturnal transect surveys along the BEE route and the immediately surrounding area. By combining the two phases it is possible to identify and evaluate the potential value of the land within the Scheme Boundary for bats in order to recommend any mitigation and determine the potential impacts of the BEE. Good practice guidelines as set out in Bat Surveys for Professional Ecologists: Good Practice Guidelines (3rd Edition) (Collins, 2016) recommend that a single manual transect is undertaken per season ( spring April/May, summer June/July/August, autumn September/October) for sites with low suitability for foraging bats. In addition, automated/static bat detector surveys should also be undertaken at one location per transect with data collected on five consecutive nights per season. However, due to the potential for damage or theft of static bat detectors within the BEE, because of the publically accessible nature of the site, automated/static activity surveys cannot be completed. To supplement the absence of automated/static activity surveys the number of manual activity surveys has been increased to one survey per month, for four months, in line with sites with moderate suitability for bats and in consultation with Birmingham City Council. 2.2 Desk Study A data search was undertaken in order to determine the presence of records of bats. The data search was conducted over a 2km buffer from the Survey Extent Boundary, as defined in the Preliminary Ecological Appraisal (MM, 2016), as recommended in the Bat Surveys for Professional Ecologists: Good Practice Guidelines (3 rd Edition) (Collins, 2016). Additionally, all Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) designated for bats were searched for over a 30km radius. The consultees for the desk study were: Birmingham and the Black Country ecological database (EcoRecord); and Multi-Agency Geographical Information for the Countryside (MAGIC) website for statutory conservation sites. 2.3 Bat Activity Surveys All bat surveys broadly followed good practice guidelines as set out in Bat Surveys for Professional Ecologists: Good Practice Guidelines (3 rd Edition) (Collins, 2016), with surveys completed monthly from May to August. 3

14 The bat activity surveys covered the BEE route and immediately surrounding areas, with all three surveys initially starting outside Ladbrooke House on Bordesley Street, as this is the location of the historic bat roost. After completing an emergence survey of Ladbrooke House, the survey then focused on observing any other bat activity along the route. These surveys comprised walking transects using manual bat detectors (Batlogger M full spectrum bat detector). The manual survey technique is used to ascertain the variety of species using the area and give an indication of their spatial distribution across a transect. The surveys were weather and temperature dependent as inclement weather does not provide the optimum conditions for these species. Surveys were not undertaken during heavy rain or when dusk temperatures dropped below 10 C Manual transect surveys The manual transect surveys were undertaken by a licensed bat worker (Natural England Bat Class Licence WML-CL18, Registration Number: CLS-CLS) accompanied by an additional ecologist. Batlogger M full spectrum bat detectors were used during the manual transect surveys. These surveys encompassed: one survey per month, between May and August, following instruction in May 2016 regular stops were made at listening and recording points for 3 minutes and then bat activity was recorded continuously between points surveyors recorded echolocation of passing bats and noted their flight paths (commuting routes and foraging locations) where possible. Calls of sufficient clarity and which were of an adequate length allowed the surveyor to identify the bat species (or family in the case of the more difficult Myotis species) This survey effort is commensurate with the minimum recommended survey effort required for a site with moderate habitat quality. Each of the surveys was undertaken at dusk and the timings were in line with good practice as shown in Table 2.1. Table 2.1: Recommended bat activity survey timings Survey Objective Dusk Survey Dawn Survey Bat Activity away from roost (e.g. transects, all species) Source: Collins, 2016 START: ¼ hour before sunset LENGTH: 2-3 hours LENGTH: 2-3 hours FINISH: sunrise Sound analysis Bat echolocation calls on Batlogger M s were recorded as sound files (WAV files). Analysis was undertaken using the Bat Explorer sound analysis programme. All sound analysis followed guidance 4

15 provided by Russ (2012). Due to extreme similarities in their sonograms, it is difficult to identify certain species of bat to species level. For this reason, Myotis species will not be identified to species level without further supporting evidence. 2.4 Limitations Due to the potential for damage or theft of static bat detectors, because of the publically accessible nature of the site, automated/static activity surveys cannot be completed. To supplement the absence of automated/static activity surveys the number of manual activity surveys has been increased to one survey per month, in line with sites with moderate suitability for bats. The arrangement of bat transect surveys means this technique can only ever provide a snap shot of bat activity. However, this survey technique is the recommended procedure in order to obtain useful information regarding bat activity while covering large areas. The accurate identification of bat species in field surveys depends on the skill level of the surveyor and will vary between surveyors. A large proportion of bats cannot be identified with complete confidence from their echolocation calls alone and require sound analysis of their calls to provide a degree of certainty. Analysing bat echolocation using sound analysis programmes can be complicated and is not 100% infallible. Providing adequate training and the use of standardised methods or identification keys/literature can be used to minimise the impact of surveyor variability, but cannot fully remove this influence. When the bat call was not clear enough to be broadly identified, a precautionary approach was taken and the record was given an Unknown category. There is often a substantial degree of overlap between some or all of the characteristics of a species call range e.g. some bat species can vary frequency, call duration and inter pulse interval (elapsed time from one pulse to another) across a given range. This variation can affect the interpretation of the results, and when this has taken place certain bats were grouped together for identification. Where calls were similar, species were grouped together; the group Myotis species includes: Daubenton s (Myotis daubentonii), Natterer s (Myotis nattereri), whiskered (Myotis mystacinus), Brandt s (Myotis brandtii), alcathoe (Myotis alcathoe) and Bechstein s (Myotis bechsteinii) bats. Biological records obtained from third parties and presented in the desk study do not represent a full and complete species list for the area. They are mostly given by individuals on an ad hoc basis, often meaning there are areas of deficiency in the data. 5

16 3 Legislation and Ecology 3.1 Legislation Throughout Britain, bat numbers have suffered a decline in recent years and, as a result, all species of British bat are protected by United Kingdom (UK) and European legislation. All species of British bats and their roosts are fully protected under Schedule 5 of the Wildlife & Countryside Act 1981 (WCA) with additional protection offered under Schedule 2 of the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2010 (CHSR). This makes it an offence to kill, injure or disturb bats or obstruct access to, damage or destroy bat roosts. Under this legislation, a roost is determined as any structure or place used for shelter. As bats tend to reuse the same roosts, the roost is protected whether the bats are present at the time or not. The unmitigated redevelopment of existing roost and foraging sites is an important factor in the decline in bat populations and national planning policy has been devised to halt or reverse this decline. Paragraph 98 of the Government Circular 06/05 (Office of Deputy Prime Minister) states that the presence of a protected species is a material consideration when a planning authority is considering a development proposal that, if carried out, would be likely to result in harm to the species or its habitat. Paragraph 99 also states that It is essential that the presence or otherwise of protected species, and the extent that they may be affected by the proposed development, is established before the planning permission is granted, otherwise all relevant material considerations may not have been addressed in making the decision. The Government Circular 06/05 (Office of Deputy Prime Minister) which supports National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) states that local authorities should take steps to further the conservation of habitats and species of principal importance through their planning function. The habitats and species subject to this duty are those listed as priorities under section 41 of the Natural Environment and Rural Communities (NERC) Act Status of Bats at the National Level Historically, severe declines in bat populations have been reported, and bats have yet to recover from these losses. Seven of the British bats are listed as Priority Species in the UK Biodiversity Action Plan (UKBAP) (2007), including the soprano pipistrelle and noctule, the species most likely to be found within the Survey Extent Boundary. 3.3 Status of Bats at the Local / Regional Level There are eighteen species of bat in the UK, seventeen of which are known to be breeding here. Ten species of bat have been recorded in Birmingham and the Black Country and are listed on the County BAP. The bat species considered to be common within Birmingham and the Black Country are brown longeared bat (Plecotus auritus), common pipistrelle (Pipistrellus pipistrellus), Daubenton s bat (Myotis daubentoni) and soprano pipistrelle (Pipistrellus pygmaeus). Uncommon species include noctule (Nyctalus noctula), Leisler s Bat (Nyctalus leisleri) and serotine (Eptesicus serotinus). Lesser horseshoe bat 6

17 (Rhinolophus hipposideros), whiskered (Myotis mystacinus) and Brandt s bat (Myotis brandti) are rare within the county. 3.4 Current Factors Causing Loss or Decline in Birmingham and the Black Country British bats are insectivorous, occupying many habitat types. They require warm summer breeding roosts and cool, secure hibernation sites. The main factors currently causing loss or decline in Birmingham and the Black Country include: intensification of agriculture and inappropriate riparian management leading to a decline in the amount of insect prey for all species; widespread misunderstanding of the legislation protecting bats, leading to loss or damage of many roosts when consultation procedures have been ignored; changes in agricultural practices, and to a lesser extent urbanisation, have reduced areas of insect-rich habitat and the connective flyways, which act as feeding and commuting routes between these habitats; loss of winter roosting sites, which need to be cold, humid and undisturbed; loss, destruction and disturbance of other roosts, particularly maternity roosts, through the use of toxic timber treatment chemicals, intolerance by roosts owners, building practices, and tree felling; and climate change. 7

18 4 Results 4.1 Desk Study There are no sites specifically designated for bats within 30km of the Survey Extent Boundary. Table 4.1 details the bat records within 2km of the site provided by Ecorecord. Species without records in the last ten years are considered to be less relevant.

No bats were observed emerging from the building during any point of the four surveys. After the initial survey of Labrooke House each transect survey continued for approximately two hours along the length of the BEE route, completing two full laps of the route. No bat activity of any kind was observed during the May, June and August surveys, with the only bat recorded during all four manual 8

19 transect surveys was a single common pipistrelle bat briefly foraging over the open grassland section adjacent to Eastside City Park at approximately at 23:25hrs during the 4 July survey. 9

20 5 Interpretation and Recommendations 5.1 Interpretation Overview An overview from the four surveys indicates that there is a very small amount of bat activity present within the Survey Extent Boundary, with the Eastside City Park being the only area where any activity was recorded. The single bat observed was a common pipistrelle bat, which are known for more generalist behaviour and distributions (Jones & Walsh, 2006) and have been recorded on an ad hoc basis across the city centre, based on the desk study results. Overall numbers of bats using the Survey Extent Boundary is considered to be negligible due to the low incidence of encounters during the manual transect surveys Habitat loss The BEE proposals are mainly confined to hardstanding roads and pedestrian areas, limiting the amount of valuable habitat loss. Only a narrow strip of grass and a few trees are currently to be removed and, given the low levels of overall bat activity, the loss of this habitat it is unlikely to have a significant effect on the small population of bats which sporadically use the area Increase in lighting The BEE route is already very heavily lit in terms of street and building lighting; with particular bright spots including High Street Deritend and the portion of the city centre from the pedestrian area outside Hotel La Tour north towards Bull Street. However, the general urban glow from lighting around the BEE route means that even the darker areas are still very well illuminated. Street lighting along the BEE route is likely to increase around tram stops for safety reasons; but no other overall increases in lighting are anticipated. While the small increases in lighting may have a detrimental effect on the amount of foraging on the site, given the significant amount of lighting already in place along the route it is highly unlikely that any new lighting will make an impact on foraging bats. In fact, common and soprano pipistrelle bats are most the species most resilient to artificial lighting (Stone at al. 2009) and are likely to adapt to the new lighting scheme and may even exploit the opportunities they offer Green infrastructure proposals It is considered that the proposals for green infrastructure as part of the development project are likely to enhance the overall habitat value within the Site for bats. For instance, new street tree planting, particularly in the Eastside City Park and where the route crosses the River Rea could encourage foraging opportunities for bats by increasing the availability of their invertebrate prey. The current green infrastructure proposals at the site will be beneficial to bats in the local area and bat activity should increase from the current low levels, as found during the surveys. However, this is unlikely to occur initially as the construction phase of the development is likely to deter the small number of bats 10

21 currently using the site, particularly as a result of noise disturbance. Moreover, the expected habitat enhancements as a result of the green infrastructure proposals will require time to appropriately establish. 5.2 Recommendations In order to maximise the potential of the site for bats and minimise the disturbance of the new lighting scheme some general recommendations are put forward: install bat boxes within the existing mature trees which are to be retained as part of the proposals particularly in Eastside City Park; and, if possible, within the River Rea culvert; if possible, increase the proposed amount of planting across the site, particularly focusing on using trees as a barrier to lighting; where planting is proposed, plant native species-rich plants to encourage a high invertebrate diversity; set aside some areas of grassland to create rough grassland to increase invertebrate habitat and vegetation structure, as currently occurring in the Eastside City Park; reduce the height of artificial lighting columns to a minimum; where practicable install directional lighting or hoods, cowls, shield or louvers around lighting columns to direct the light in areas surrounding Eastside City Park and the section over the River Rea it is recommended that the Bat Conservation Trust Interim Guidance: Recommendations to help minimise the impact of artificial lighting is consulted prior to agreeing the final lighting scheme; during construction keep noise to a minimum by turning plant and machinery off when not in use, particularly during the night time hours 11

22 6 Conclusions Overall the site supports negligible levels of bat activity of common pipistrelle bats. While it is difficult to make any informed judgements based on the survey findings the one piece of activity observed was within the darker and more suitable foraging habitat of Eastside City Park. Only a small amount of vegetation is due to be lost during the development process and as the site is heavily urbanised, and there will be very little change to the urban landscape through development, there is unlikely to be a significant impact on bat activity levels. Additionally, as the BEE route is already incredibly well illuminated, and activity levels are very low, the proposed increases in lighting as part of the BEE are unlikely to detrimentally impact on overall bat activity levels. The combination of positive enhancement for bats through new landscape planting, and recommended mitigation, outlined in this report has the potential to benefit bat activity at a local scale. 12
