Actually, there are some bridges that span some interstates in NJ that are 'natural' bridges. They are covered in dirt and have small trees growing on them - this allows critters like deer and fox to cross from one side of the highway to another. (An example of this in NJ is on Rt 78 near Berkeley Heights)

I suppose a wet tunnel under the highway could do the same for gators, but I wouldn't want to be the inspector of those passageways!

An alligator x-ing? You crazy Yankees.

Seriously, they are not intelligent creatures. Deer are mammals with moderate cunning. You shoot enough deer in one location and the rest will stay away. You shoot a gator and the rest will come to eat it.

Thin the population or look for them in your pool (as my B man experienced).
