Moray Bridge

Conclusion:

As reliance on the automobile increases, the demand for more roadways will consequently be on the rise. However, the infrastructure of the Moray bridge should serve as a good model of integrated and more sustainable development. Although a multi-million dollar thoroughfare was produced, native forests and wildlife were protected, and even enhanced. The development allows pedestrians and cyclists to gain a deeper appreciation of the area, and promotes an educational component.

Hopefully more bridge and infrastructure developments will follow in this manner.
