Abstract The start of the freeway era in Korea has led to a dramatic increase in the demand for road traffic between cities, and the following damages have been emerging. Examples include sunshine and ventilation disturbance emerging from the construction of roads, bridges, and tunnels which have led to crop damages. The ventilation disturbance damages due to the wind resulting from freeway facilities (noise barrier, road embankment) are continuously on the increase. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to use an culvert to research methods which can promote wind movements which have been modified from road mounding, perform wind tunnel test from different wind speed, compare changes in the overall air current conditions following the number and form of culvert, and discover the ventilation effects which promote smooth wind flow.
