This is the first major marine bridge-cum-tunnel Arup developed a climate hazard and infrastructure cross-boundary project in China. The 29.6km long risk assessment tool for the Yangtze River Delta crossing comprises 22.8km of bridges including three Region. The tool enables 26 cities to review their cable-stayed bridges with spans ranging from 280m climate hazards and assess the likely impact on to 460m, approach viaducts with typical spans of their major infrastructure. It gives them a better 80m and 110m, a 6.7km long immersed tube tunnel understanding of current and future climate hazards, and two artificial islands for tunnel daylighting. and the trends that are likely to affect a specific city Arup was responsible for the preliminary design and or region. With the tool, cities can determine which investigation of the project. elements of infrastructures are most at risk caused from climate change. This allows them to take the necessary steps to adapt and build resilience, as well as identify which areas or infrastructure assets need to be prioritised for adaptation.
