Imagine trying to travel around the UK without our road and rail network. Or imagine if nine out of every ten miles of road just didn’t exist – life would be impossible! That is the situation faced by our vital pollinators and other bugs. B-Lines is Buglife’s unique solution.

Browse, or download, our information packs below to find out more about B-Lines, their importance and how Local Authorities can manage green spaces in B-Lines for pollinators. If you still have questions please do get in touch.
