Why is such a tunnel needed?
I found such a photo on the Internet and became interested in what function such a structure could perform.
My guess is that it will be a “nature highway” so migratory species can cross over the road

236ReplyThey disrupt the nature a little less. Animals aren’t hit crossing the street because they can go over and other small benefits like that. They also look nice and tunnels are fun when your car sounds nice
97ReplyWe had a few of these built in my country to allow wildlife to cross safely.

36ReplyCoquihalla highway has something like this to keep avalanches and rocks off the road.
It's the only tunnel I've driven that has windows.
