The habitats of the protected flying squirrel were last mapped in the city ten years ago.
The city of Riihimäki commissions a flying squirrel survey. The survey will be done as part of extensive master plan work, but it will also serve more detailed construction planning.
The living areas of the flying squirrels in Riihimäki were last mapped ten years ago, and the information needs to be updated. The new report is based on both existing information and field visits.
The investigation costs around 50,000 euros, and the company selected as the author will do it during this year.
The flying squirrel is strictly protected.
