Impact of Motorway Construction on the Environmental Landscape and Protection Countermeasures
During motorway construction, quarrying, borrowing earth and spoil grounds will cause soil erosion. The fertility of soil is reduced, changing its physicochemical properties, which makes it more difficult for vegetation to grow and recover. Upon construction, motorways generate a microclimate environment, which mainly depends on the properties of underlying surface and composition of the atmosphere. Wild animals are the main victims of habitat fragmentation during motorway construction. A survey has found that there are no cultural relics and scenic spots requiring special protection along the Nanjing‐Hangzhou Motorway, so the impact on the history, culture and scenery of the area along the motorway has been small and the prospect for the development of tourism resources is promising. Dust causes air pollution during construction. By planting vegetation to improve the landscape, the construction of the motorway will ensure the integration of local landscape, environmental protection and tourism.
