New “Critter Crossing” in Spokane a big hit
Posted by Unknown on Wednesday, August 31, 2011
As part of the US 395/North Spokane Corridor (NSC) freeway project, a thirty-foot arched culvert was installed to carry Deadman Creek under the existing US 2 where the two highways meet. The culvert replaced an 8 x 8 concrete box culvert.
We installed a motion-activated camera to see if the local wildlife would make the change in their wandering habits from crossing the busy highway to the new, wider and taller route.
We were right! They love it. Dozens of deer have been captured by the camera and we also snapped a photo of this moose enjoying an early morning stroll.
