It looks like their needs to be barriers on either side of the road for their protection - likely impossible! I assume it is a bit like a migration.

Thank you, Daniele! I didn't notice the Arthropods category. I have removed the BBC video.

Great spotting ViorelFlorinSandu! Welcome to Project Noah. I reclassified these crabs under Arthropods for you. I notice that the video is from the BBC. The video links on spottings are only for videos taken by yourself. Therefore we ask you kindly to remove this link. Thank you.
