Lots of places where those would be really helpful.

They make underpasses too. I remember when they first came into being back in the late 1900/early 2000. The Craighead group, can't remember exactly which term they used then, and speaking with Lance Craighead, son of one of the famous twins, about it. At that time, I think it was the first one, was along US30 in Wyoming near a national monument. There's one up on the pass near me on I90 and I know of a few on US93 north of Wells, NV. Those are the ones I've seen over the years but I know there are many more.

They should also go over some railroad tracks.
