Produktinformationen zu „The Environment and Landscape in Motorway Design (ePub)“
The construction and operation of highways has a significant
impact on the environment. While such impact is impossible to
avoid, modern highways are constructed and landscaped to minimise
these impacts as far as possible. Good landscaping minimises
the impact on those living or working close to the highway, while
at the same time regenerating the natural landscape disturbed
during
construction.
Using as its background the successful landscape design of the
Nanjing-Hangzhou Expressway in Jiangsu Province, China, which
opened to traffic in 2007, Highway Landscape Design includes
reference to all aspects of the landscaping of highways, including
interchanges, embankments, central reservations, bridges, service
and toll station areas, and drainage systems. Appropriate
consideration is given to the negative impact on the surrounding
environment during the process of construction and it discusses the
ecological evaluation and conservation strategy for the highway
route. China is in some respects at the forefront of highway
landscape design as a result of rapid growth and development
coupled with the financial resources to implement major
infrastructure works, and the concepts, technologies and methods
developed for this Expressway provide valuable experience for
sustainable development strategies for such
infrastructure.
