| Abstract: |
This paper presents sustainability in the context of bridges by means of three short case studies. The case studies consider how a bridge construction project can deliver a range of positive sustainability outcomes, how sustainability can be integrated into the development of a major new bridge and infrastructure project and how a major contribution to sustainability may be achieved when a project is considered in its broadest context. |
