If you’ve noticed what looks like upside-down traffic cones stuck to the underside of freeway overpasses in the Sacramento area, you’re not alone. It’s an inventive plan to save the birds and the bats.
You can see them under the overpass for Highway 50 near downtown Sacramento, the stretch often called the W-X Freeway. The orange cones on the underside started showing up in mid-December.
Each covers what’s known as a “weep hole,” a place moisture can drain out of the roadway. When they’re dry, though, birds and bats fly into them to nests hidden inside the structure.
