English term or phrase: for later assisted transport across the road
Gracias de antemano por su ayuda.

For example, if road mortality is found to be high for amphibian and reptile species in certain locations (e.g., where the road bisects breeding habitat), drift fences and pitfall traps to collect individuals for later assisted transport across the road will be considered.

Culverts will not mitigate the filter effects of the coast road on arboreal species like primates or sloths; however, the use of crossing opportunities within the canopy has proven effective for these species (Goosem et al. 2006). Where possible, the canopy over the ROW will be retained to provide connectivity for canopy-dwelling mammals. In addition, rope bridges will be installed at locations between major cut and fill sections of the road where the RoW will be at its narrowest. Based on the number of cuts and fills anticipated, there could be rope bridges every 500 m on average, sufficient to provide canopy connectivity across the coast road.
