초록

본 연구는 고속도로 야생동물 유도울타리 설치효과를 분석하여 적정한 유도울타리 설치 개선 및 관리방안을 제시하고자 중앙고속도로 만종분기점~홍천나들목구간을 대상으로 수행하였다. 고속도로에 설치된 유도울타리는 포유류의 도로침입 방지효과가 있었으며, 방음벽, 낙석방지울타리, 2단 가드레일과 분리방호벽도 로드킬 예방에 효과적인 시설이었다. 유도울타리의 로드킬 저감 효과는 출입문이 설치된 높이 1.5m의 울타리보다 출입문이 설치되지 않은 높이 1.0m 구간이 로드킬 감소효과가 높아 출입문의 유무가 로드킬 저감에 중요한 요인으로 판단되었다. 또한 도로시설물의 연결지점에서 로드킬 저감 효과가 컸으며 출입문이 있더라도 관리가 잘되는 지역도 로드킬 감소효과가 높았다. 유도울타리는 설치연장이 증가함에 따라 로드킬 감소율이 높았다. 유도울타리 끝 부분과 절토부 주변은 로드킬에 취약하여 이에 대한 개선이 요구되었다. 울타리 유지관리용 출입문은 설치간격이 가까울수록 로드킬 발생량이 높아 출입문 관리가 로드킬 저감에 효과가 많은 것으로 판단되었다. 고속도로 유도울타리 설치 개선방안은 암반의 급경사 지역 외에 모두 설치되어야 하고, 도로상의 낙석방지책, 2단 가드레일, 방호벽 등은 적정 시설개선을 통해 유도울타리로 연결 설치되어야 한다. 출입문을 설치할 경우 자동개폐식 또는 중력개폐식으로 설치하여 개방을 방지하고 야생동물 탈출로가 조성이 되어야 한다. 겸용생물이동통로는 토양층 복원이나 식생공간을 조성하여 생물이동통로화 하여야하며 로드킬로 포식자에 의한 2차 로드킬을 막기 위해 사고난 사체는 즉시 도로외부로 처리가 되어야 한다. 울타리는 최소 사고예방 목표지점으로부터 양방향 500m 이상 즉 1,000m 이상 설치되어야 하며 가급적 다음 도로시설인 교량, 통로박스 등까지 연결하여 야생동물을 생물이동통로로 안전하게 유도하여야 한다.

This study had targeted the Manjong Junction~Hongchun interchange section of Jungang highway in order to analyze the efficiency and improvement of the highway wild-life fences. Being analyzed wild-life fence as an effective facility for the prevention of road-kill, it had founded that the wild animals did not jump over even the two layer guardrail, concrete barrier and noise barrier, fence for rock fall. For the section with high road-kill decrease effect after installing the wild-life fence, the effect was higher at wild-life fence with the height of 1.0m where the door had not been installed and the well connected points of road facility than the area with fence height of 1.5m. The road-kill decrease effect was also high at the well managed areas even if the door has not been installed. Also, road-kill had occurred by concentrating around the end of wild-life fence after installing the fence, Moreover road-kill had also occurred around the cutting section. The door of wild-life fence had higher amount of road-kill occurrence as the installation interval was closer. it was analyzed that the door management has a lot of effect on road-kill decrease. The fence for rock fall, two layer guardrail and concrete barrier having the effect of wild-life fence installed on the road would have to be installed by connecting with wild-life fences through proper facility improvement. Although the door should not be installed if possible, it should be installed as automatic door or gravity door to prevent the door from leaving the door open. An escape route has to be formed for the prompt escape away from the road for the animals entered through the ending section of the fence. The eco-corridor has to be made by restoring the soil layer of dual purpose eco-corridor forming a planting area. Also, the dead body after the accident has to be disposed to the outer section of the road immediately in order to prevent the secondary road-kill by the predator from the road-kill. The fence has to be installed as 500m or longer in both ways, in other words 1,000m or longer, from the targeted spot of minimum accident prevention while connecting up to the bridge or box culvert, etc that are next road facilities if possible to guide wild animals safely to the eco-corridor.
