The SCB Europe Region wrote a letter to the Executive Vice President of the European Commission, Frans Timmermans, to bring to the EC's attention to the impact of roads causing habitat fragmentation in Europe and to urge the Commission to adopt a roadless policy, by integrating a fragmentation minimization intervention in the implementation of the EU’s biodiversity strategy and 8th Environment Action Programme to 2030. Accordingly, this needs to be included in all concerned sectoral policies, also in the framework of the European Green Deal.
