Comment Re: Concrete Dividers on Hi/Free/Toll-ways (Score 1) 542

"But leave small gaps every ten feet or so for animals... I see roadkill stuck by them every day."

I agree wholeheartedly. I sometimes see small channels built into the bottom of the concrete dividers to allow for water runoff, but these are too small for many nocturnal creatures taller than about 4" to get through (armadillos, dogs, foxes and coyotes seem to be the most affected here in Texas). I've often wondered why the engineers responsible for designing these things didn't think of this when they pictured miles of their dividers running down the middle of tollways and construction areas in continuous-without-a-gap fashion.
