Hi Ed,
I’ve had a bit of a break from the work on my dissertation I’m coming back to it fully now. Thanks for your post, I’m trying to get hold of the article on dormouse translocation at the moment.
I bumped into a post on Manchester city council information request forum regarding the methodologies used in the runway expansion and was wondering if it was you?
How is your project coming along? I have the support of the woodland trust for my project and have an email with a load of info you may find useful if you have an email address i can forward it to?
The problem I’m having at the moment is gaining access to the airport sites, the managers are not very forthcoming with responses!
My email address is : [email protected]
If you would like to discuss anything it would be great to talk to somebody else on a similar track.
Best wishes
Sam Arthur

Sam, It would appear we both have similar aims. I have been tasked with evaluating methodologies that have previously been employed for ancient soil translocations (and the replanting of the translocated soils) and also with reviewing any reports in existance which document the monitoring of the resulting woodland. I would suggest reading up on the M2/A2 motorway widening which involved ancient woodland translocation: this journal may help you JSTOR: An Error Occurred Setting Your User Cookie. I would also search for a report by Geoffrey Roberts entitled ‘ The relocation of ancient woodlands’ which I have found very useful as it evaluated the methods of AW translocation that had been implemented to date in 2001. I understand you already know about the AW translocations involved with Manchester airports second runway which is a good project to research, as is the Channel tunnel rail link. I wonder if you might share what info you have gathered already and any preliminary findings you have come to? I look forward to hearing from you. Ed
