A £1m project to improve biodiversity and improve green spaces as part of the wider Shinfield Studios development has begun.
The work near the Eastern Relief Road in Shinfield will improve walking and cycling provision around the University of Reading-owned Thames Valley Science Park.
The first phase will create a new public footpath linking the Eastern Relief Road to Cutbush Lane and is expected to be finished by mid-December.
The second phase will next year introduce soft landscaping, including planting and fencing, improving the area’s ecological value.
