In Holland there is even a sunny bike path that provides itself and surrounding buildings with clean electricity. it interesting, but not sensational, but the fact that in England appeared track for ducks – it’s really cool!
Such “duck paths” allocated for waterfowl UK charity Canal & River Trust which in charge of inland waterways in England and Wales which make up more than three thousand kilometers. In selected areas roads adjacent to canals and rivers, and markings were made unique paths for ducks in the form of silhouettes of birds.

Fund employees wanted this way to draw the attention of car owners, cyclists to what is nearby animals are on the track with them, and therefore people are simply obliged share the road with them, since the representatives of the fauna are completely defenseless against human transport.
On the road, said Dick Vincent of Canal & River Trust. enough space for everyone, we just wanted to emphasize temporary action, that with animals that accidentally left on the track, You can quite share this place on the roadway. It’s not air, where airplanes are powerless to give way to birds, and therefore deaths of birds are not uncommon, and even dangerous for aircraft collisions with birds in mid-air occur quite often.
