Safe Crossings for Wildlife
Collisions with wildlife are one of the biggest thrests to motorists on SR 260 in the Tonto National Forest near Payson. Several major traffic accidents occur each year when large animals, such as elk and deer, attempt to cross the busy highway in search of food and water. Reducing this threat to motorists while preserving habitat connectivity for the deer and elk was one of the major motivators for the SR 260 project.
ADOT and the Arizona Game and Fish Department (AGFD) began by studying the animals' movement patterns using GPS collars and infrared video systems. Based on their findings, the project team decided to construct a wildlife bridge in the project area of Indian Gardens near milepost 268. The bridges elevate traffic at these strategic locations (where deer and elk were found to cross most often), allowing the animals to pass safely underneath without being exposed to traffic. Below the bridges, "elk fencing" and escape ramps prevent wildlife from climbing the embankment and entering the highway.
