Wildlife Crossing

Through its thoughtful, seamless design, the eco-bridge follows the tradition of Korean gardens, which aim to merge themselves with nature. By acting as an extension of the mountain, the nearly 400-foot bridge will create a new, necessary pathway for local wildlife.

The design also includes built-in water collection and distribution, for self-sustaining maintenance of the greenery. The steel structure also includes safety railings and will be placed at a height studied to optimize the distance between traffic and pollution. And easily accessible entry points, uninterrupted by humans, ensure that animals have priority in crossing.

 The Seoul government recently ran a competition to create a 28,000 square-foot eco-bridge and animal crossing over a busy highway
