Lighting impacts can be mitigated by timers/motion sensors. This would also reduce the running costs of the lighting in wildlife senstive areas. The urban heating effect also needs consideration as urban development expands across the area. The marshes are extremely important for flood defences and wildlife. Restrictions should be placed on dog walking close to the marshes and all wildlife senstive areas with legal implications of breaches e.g. dogs harasing wildlife.
