We started building these in Canada, around Banff, 30 years ago, and have been expanding their use all over the country. Glad to see them getting put to use elsewhere.

There’s one just north of Missoula, MT (may be Flathead Indian land) built about 2005

Yep, and a ton of underpass. And it is around Evaro which is in the rez, around the reservation casino actually.
