Some requests have been denied outright: a permanent road closure was requested in 2017 along Matchette Rd., and temporary road closures were requested in 2019 along Matchette and Malden roads. Other requests, although not denied, are being reviewed at a snail\u2019s pace: two under-road ecopassages on Matchette and Malden roads have been under consideration since late 2019 (even though WPC completed both a mortality hotspot analysis and a connectivity analysis, purchased the barrier fencing, and found a partner to fund the tunnels). Also, a request to implement traffic calming initiatives on Matchette Road has been under study since early 2020. In a city and town jointly responsible for over 1,300 km of roads, a small investment along a mere 5km section to save hundreds of animals per year shouldn\u2019t be so difficult.<\/p>\n<p>But what about the multi-million dollar project being proposed for Ojibway Parkway, you ask? The proposed massive ecopassage is commendable in its scope and vision, and its main purpose is to re-establish an ecological link across Ojibway Parkway (a highway barrier to wildlife movement). However, \u201cWPC has never conducted road mortality surveys on Ojibway Parkway, and so we just don\u2019t have any data to suggest that there is a road mortality problem [there]\u2026\u201d, says Choquette. That project is not about reducing road mortality on Malden and Matchette roads. Although it is important to the overall health of the Ojibway Prairie Complex, it remains an entirely separate issue.<\/p>\n<p>The question remains \u2013 what can be done about roadkill around Ojibway Prairie Provincial Park? As a citizen, you can easily avoid commuting along Matchette and Malden roads, and use Ojibway Parkway or Hwy 3 instead. More importantly, though, reach out to your local government and demand action. Let your representatives know that they can do more to protect Ojibway Prairie\u2019s endangered species from road mortality!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_5'  class='avia-section av-199lwxm-eab39a50c450694a08f95ea6b24b32de main_color avia-section-default avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_section  avia-builder-el-last  blog-inner avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-36730'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<div  class='flex_column av-n6yntm-b3fea4aa22b8fcca97490284ff6ad0e1 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-15  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  author-section first flex_column_div  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-ldf108i1-4a9ce1f947f1bfce408ff2a76b0b09d5 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">Jonathan Choquette<\/h3>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: left;\">Lead Biologist \u2013 Ojibway Prairie Reptile Recovery Program<\/h5>\n<p>Jonathan manages the recovery program for the Ojibway population of the massasauga rattlesnake in Southern Ontario.
