Wildlife Overpass In Utah
A look at some of the animals crossing over the Parleys Canyon Wildlife Overpass in Utah. The wildlife overpass was constructed over a six-lane section of I-80 by the Utah Department of Transportation in 2018 for a cost of five million dollars. The Utah Division of Wildlife Resources used trail cameras to film the various animals who are now able to safely cross the highway.

Probably the best way to spend funds seems like the Insurance companies would also like it.

I hope the insurance companies kicked in their fair share to fund at least a portion of this.
Great idea, good use of funds. Will save animals as well as potential to save human lives.

I would not care to hit any moose or bear that went over. I saw a U-Haul truck up in Canada that had hit a moose. It took the windshield right out, no idea what happened to the driver.
