The B4577 is a registered Toad Patrol site. Unfortunately the kerb stones are too high for the toads, especially males (which are small) to climb up. Consequently the mortality rate for them is extremely high. Toads are a priority species.

The kerb stones are too high. Can they be replaced by sloping kerb stones or lowered, or a small step added?

Also salting the road during the migration season is adding to the mortality rate. Can this be stopped?
