Abstract: | The Tokyo Bay Crossing Bridge-Tunnel, 15 km long is planned to cross the Tokyo Bay almost at the middle. A collision probability study was carried out looking into the combined effects of the actual behaviour of vessels entering into and navigating around the Bay, natural environment and the probability of sea accidents and storms. The conclusion obtained so far from studies of the existing situation revealed the need of a protection system for the bridge section of the Crossing against 200,000 devt. vessels in storms and 5,000 devt. vessels in ordinary weather. |
