  “Construction on ‘the world’s largest wildlife crossing’ will close a portion of the Los Angeles County’s 101 Freeway overnight on weekdays for several weeks starting Monday. The crossing will span 10 lanes of highway and aim to provide safe passage for wildlife – especially mountain lions – from the Santa Monica Mountains into the Simi Hills of the Santa Susana mountain range. The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) began constructing the crossing in April 2022, CNN previously reported. As the project nears completion in 2025, the bridge will be covered in soil and native plants to blend in with the natural surroundings.” *from CNN: https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/04/14/us/california-wildlife-crossing-road-closure https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/04/14/us/california-wildlife-cr...
