The design of infrastructure like highways and overpasses can reflect racism, such as when an underpass is constructed too low for a bus carrying mostly black and Puerto Rican kids to pass through, or when a highway is built to divide a white and black neighborhood. The low overpasses on parkways in New York, which were designed to look scenic, also became a conspiracy theory that they were deliberately built to prevent buses from Manhattan from reaching the beaches in Long Island.
