    The other side already has trees. The trees also have a secondary function besides more trees. They plant them equadistant, except for near a crossing. There the trees get closer and vloser together, giving the illusion that you’re driving too fast and encouraging people to slow down regaerdless of the roadsigns.

      No, I was wondering about the side of the guardrail facing the canal. If you look closely, there is a metal strip on that side too, which is not something I’ve seen here in the US. Maybe it’s just there to add extra strength? I guess traditional guardrails rely a lot on the guardrail deforming and acting like a net, which might cause a problem when the edge of the canal is so near, IDK
