Sustainable road-kill mitigation in Gladak Perak Bridge at Lumajang, Indonesia

Traffic accidents involving animals occur every year. Roadkill is a serious problem
faced by the whole world, including Indonesia. Therefore, it is necessary to modify road
accessories to prevent accidents, both from animals and road users. Prevention can be done in
several ways, such as by installing fences or creating crossing paths, for animals. The fence can
be used as a barrier between the driving lane and the animal path, where they can carry out
activities such as playing without disturbing road users. Meanwhile, the making of crossing paths
can be used by animals as access for animal migration. This study would like to propose a design
for implementing cross-fencing mitigation at Gladak Perak Bridge at Lumajang, Indonesia. This
location is an accident-prone area due to the sudden crossing of monkeys, which has been a myth
in the community. Through the implementation of the installation of road dividers, it is hoped
that the road design at the research site becomes wildlife friendly road and the management of
traffic also meet the Indonesian design standards for inter-city roads without reducing tourism
potential.
