초록

고속도로 망의 지속적인 확장과 교통량 증대로 인해 고속도로에 인접하여 서식하는 야생동물의 생활권은 축소되거나 단절된다. 이는 먹이를 찾거나 번식지로 이동하는 야생동물들의 교통사고 가능성을 높인다. 야생동물 교통사고는 운전자의 안전 및 도로 시설의 위험 요소일 뿐만 아니라 야생동물 자체의 생명에도 위협이 된다. 야생동물의 서식지 분절을 막기 위한 다양한 방법 중 생태통로와 야생동물 유도 울타리가 대표적이다. 이러한 야생동물 교통사고 예방사업의 시설 설치비용은 명확하게 측정되지만, 편익의 경제적 가치를 측정하기는 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 조건부가치측정법을 사용하여 고속도로 상의 야생동물 교통사고 예방사업의 경제적 가치를 추정하였다. 추정결과에 따르면, 우리나라 전체 가구의 약 43.88%가 이 사업에 대한 양(+)의 지불의사를 가진 것으로 나타났다. 이와 더불어 환경문제의 인식이나 동 사업에 대한 사전 인지 정도가 높을수록 지불의사 확률과 지불의사액이 높아지는 것이 확인되었다. 따라서 해당 사업에 대한 적극적인 홍보는 야생동물 교통사고 예방사업에 긍정적인 여론을 형성하고, 동 사업에 양(+)의 금액을 지불할 의사가 있는 가구를 늘리는 데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

With the continuous expansion of highway network and its traffics, neighboring wildlife habitats are splitted into smaller and more isolated patches. The infrastructures contribute to the wildlife-vehicle collision by creating barriers to animal movement. This kinds of traffic accidents are dangerous factors to the drivers' safety and the facilities on the highway as well as to the wildlife themselves. One of the most common ways to prevent habitat fragmentation are fauna crossings and fences. The cost of the mitigation measures to prevent wildlife-vehicle collision could be monetized. However their economic benefits are difficult to be measured. Using contingent valuation method, this study tries to estimate the economic valuation of wildlife collision prevention projects on the Korean highways. The result shows that 43.88% of Korean household had the positive willingness pay to the projects. Moreover, we found that the recognition of the project or the favourable attitude to the environmental issues could raise the willingness-to-pay. Therefore, active public relation on the project could make the friendly public opinion and increase the number of the household which has the positive willingness-to-pay on the project.
