Alpi Marittime: Ecological corridors preventing car accidents
by zopemaster — published Mar 26, 2010 — last modified Jul 07, 2021 01:15 AM — filed under: ,
In the Italian Alpi Marittime Natural Park car crashes which involve ungulates are very common. In most cases those accidents, besides being hazardous for drivers' life, could have been avoided with a better territorial planning, a more careful infrastructure planning and a warier use of existing technologies. The Alpi Marittime natural park will make use of the new ways to help the passage for animals across busy roads, which have been tested in the Pilot region of Isère.
