Abstract:The river dredging is required to combine with the local demands to newly construct the bridges at the old bridge position or in the other sites. There are many factors influencing the determination of bridge scheme, general layout and scale. It is required to comprehensively consider the river design results, road planning and waterway requirements after the river dredging for selection. The engineering cases show that grasping these essentials and coordinating the relationships among various parties can facilitate the smooth implementation of bridge and river construction.
