The Delhi-Dehradun Expressway’s 12-kilometer elevated section is being heralded as an innovative model for protecting terrestrial animals and avian species.
Designed with unique features that ensure safe passage for wildlife, the expressway seamlessly integrates ecological considerations with modern infrastructure.
A standout feature includes specially designed yellow ambient lights that guide drivers while maintaining a sense of darkness at night, particularly benefiting nocturnal creatures like owls. Spearheaded by the Wildlife Institute of India, this initiative reflects a commitment to environmental stewardship, promising safer coexistence between humans and wildlife.
