Background information

Tiistilänraitti is an important travel route for flying squirrels between their habitats. The plan amendment is related to the detailed planning of Tiistinlaakso (311802). The Uusimaa ELY Centre has granted an exemption permit for the protection of flying squirrels for the detailed planning of Tiistinlaakso. When granting the permit, the ELY Centre required mitigation actions to secure the east-west travel routes of the flying squirrels and ensure their preservation. For this reason, the flying squirrel route along Tiistilänraitti is to be protected in the plan.
