Abstract:In recent years, with the increase in urban traffic pressure and the rising demand for ecological environment improvement, the greening of elevated bridge decks gradually comes into the public eye. To summarize the experience of greening elevated bridges and provide a reference basis for the greening construction of other cities, the selection of plant varieties, planting management and daily maintenance methods for the greening of elevated bridge decks are mainly discussed. Through field research, the main plant species such as roses and bougainvillea suitable for the greening of elevated bridges and the characteristics of these plants are analyzed. Combined with the special environmental requirements of elevated bridges, the placement forms of flower boxes on elevated bridge decks are discussed. Key maintenance links such as soil configuration, irrigation, fertilization, pruning, pest and disease control, and extreme weather response measures are summarized, which contributes to the ecological development of the city
