S1E20: 1.20 - Wildlife Mitigation System along the I-25 South GAP Project - Oct. 20, 2021

The wildlife mitigation system is a major safety improvement
element of the I-25 South Gap project, which spans 18 miles and
connects Colorado’s two largest cities, Denver and Colorado
Springs. On average, over 87,000 motorists drive this route
daily. The I-25 South Gap project’s wildlife mitigation system
includes four new and one refurbished wildlife underpasses, 28
miles of deer fencing and deer guards and jump-outs. Work on the
underpasses is substantially complete, as is the installation of
the majority of deer fencing, just in time to shepherd migrating
wildlife safely under the interstate this fall.





In this episode, as this November 2021 marks the five-year
anniversary since the agencies first came together to start
planning for improvements along I-25 south.
