WHAT IS FLORA?
2. Habitat
fragmentation -Roads
tend to fragment an area
into weaker ecological sub-
units, thus making the
whole more vulnerable to
invasions and degradation.
3. Aquatic habitat
damage -Road development
has perhaps its most serious
effects on aquatic
ecosystems. Erosion from
poorly constructed and
rehabilitated sites can lead
to downstream siltation,
ruining spawning beds.
INDIRECT IMPACTS
1. Accessibility- Roads increase
contact between humans and the natural
environment, which in most cases leads
to ecosystem modification.
