一 | Beavers might give a helping hand - or a helping paw - to drought-hit Britain by building dams that maintain wetland areas, according to the Daily Star.,Citing wildlife experts, the report said that although the countryside has been drying up due to the lack of rain, areas where beavers have been introduced have "continued to thrive.",The rodent species was once native to Britain, but went extinct in the 16th century when hunters killed them as vermin and for their meat, fur, and pelts. The National Trust's Holnicote Estate in Somerset reintroduced beavers in 2020.,“It is stunning. It’s like a lost world. It feels almost like Jurassic Park – different from anywhere else on the estate," the National Trust’s Holnicote manager Ben Eardley said, as cited by the outlet. "They’ve created additional ponds and wet woodland, wetland, and it’s still absolutely brimful of water because they impound it.”,Now, beavers might give the UK a chance to survive the drought caused by July's extreme heatwave that saw temperatures surpassing 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit).,Following the severe heatwave, a drought was declared in 14 regions of the country, with farmers calling for a ban on hosepipes to save water.。 AI摘要 前横闽江大桥及接线工程可研获批，全长约1.5公里，连接仓山与台江。
二 | 项目将完善福州路网，缓解东部过江压力，提升通行效率。目前正开展初步设计，争取尽早开工。 近日，前横闽江大桥及其接线工程可行性研究报告获省发改委批复，同意建设。
三 | 项目起于福州仓山区雁头路，主线沿前横快速通道向北，高架桥上跨南江滨西大道，设置前横闽江大桥跨越闽江，后上跨北江滨中大道，终于台江区鳌峰路，与在建前横快速路高架桥衔接，并分别于南江滨大道、北江滨大道各设置1处互通式立交，南北桥头分别设置非机动车桥。项目全长约1.5公里，南江滨立交设置6条匝道，北江滨立交设置4条匝道，南北桥头非机动车桥长度分别为1.1公里、0.85公里。 主线采用城市主干路标准建设，设计速度60公里/小时，规划红线宽度47米至60米，其中主线高架桥按双向六车道，前横闽江大桥按双向八车道；地面辅道设计速度40公里/小时。
四 | 根据批复，福州市有关部门将抓紧开展初步设计，深化其他相关前期工作，争取项目尽早开工建设。 项目的建设对完善福州骨干路网系统，加强福州二环、三环间路网密度，缓解福州东部过江通道交通压力，提高台江、仓山、晋安通行效率，促进福州经济社会发展等具有重要意义。
