Why are creepers under most viaducts in China?

First,? Parthenocissus tricuspidata under viaduct

When we are outside in go on road trip, some friends will find such a thing. On or next to the viaduct, there will be creepers. They are attached to the bridge deck like a beautiful scenery. Many people are particularly curious about whether these creepers are human or other reasons. Parthenocissus grows very fast. This is a climbing plant. The reason why the country planted it on the viaduct is to alleviate the eye fatigue of drivers or pedestrians.

Second,? safety action

The substances secreted by Parthenocissus tricuspidata in the growth process have certain viscosity, which protects the upper surface of viaduct and slows down the corrosion rate. So the country will choose plants like Parthenocissus tricuspidata to climb under the viaduct. In addition, the rapid climbing of Parthenocissus tricuspidata can protect the environment to a certain extent, and attaching to buildings can play a good role in cooling down, so it is cooler to stay below in summer.

Third,? The real purpose

Because Parthenocissus tricuspidata plays a particularly important role, the country spends a lot of time planting them, which can not only look beautiful, but also protect the environment, slow down the corrosion of bridges and make the service life of bridges longer.

When traveling by car, we watched the Parthenocissus tricuspidata on the viaduct while enjoying the scenery outside. In fact, we are in another mood, which can not only relieve eye fatigue, but also let Parthenocissus tricuspidata play a real role.
