    Arteris, a Brazilian highway concessionaire, expresses its support for the implementation of **permanent wildlife crossing and collision risk alerts** in Waze.

    We systematically monitor incidents involving wild and domestic animals along our highways, allowing us to identify critical road segments (*hotspots*) where animal crossings and collisions occur frequently and where increased driver awareness is needed.

    We believe that the creation of **Wildlife Crossing Alert Zones**, operating similarly to the School Zones feature already available in the app, would be an important tool for accident prevention, road safety, and biodiversity conservation.

    Unlike temporary "Animal on Road" alerts, this functionality would allow drivers to be proactively warned when approaching road segments with a recurring history of wildlife crossings and collisions, encouraging speed reduction and more cautious driving.

    **We are interested in collaborating on the development of this solution**, including by sharing georeferenced wildlife monitoring data and participating in potential pilot projects to assess its feasibility and effectiveness.

    We see this initiative as a valuable opportunity to integrate technology, road safety, and environmental conservation, and we strongly support prioritizing this feature within Waze.
