The Forest Department has constructed five ropeway bridges at different points along the Tangail-Mymensingh regional highway passing through Madhupur National Park. The initiative aims to reduce wildlife deaths caused by animals attempting to cross the busy road that divides the forest into two parts. The ropeways, installed between trees, allow monkeys, langurs, and other arboreal species to move safely across the highway.

According to forest officials, many animals, including monkeys and nocturnal species, were frequently killed by speeding vehicles while crossing the paved road in search of food. Warning signs urging drivers to slow down have not been effective. Local journalist Liton Sarkar noted that the highway sees heavy traffic daily and that animals often die while approaching visitors for food. He suggested creating designated visitor zones and increasing the number of ropeways, as the current five are insufficient for the large forest area.

Officials hope the ropeways will help ensure safer movement for wildlife and reduce fatalities caused by habitat fragmentation and food scarcity in the shrinking Madhupur forest.
