A million extra trees to be planted as part of Lower Thames Crossing project
National Highways will plant over one million trees in Essex and Kent as part of the proposed Lower Thames Crossing project.
The authority says the one thousand hectares of forest it's proposing is six times bigger than what will be lost to the new road across the River Thames.
The scheme aims to be the greenest road ever built in the UK, and includes creating a community woodland and two public parks among 400 hectares of 鈥榣andscape scale鈥� woodland, planned with Natural England.
