MINIMIZING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT IN TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE: INTERNATIONAL APPROACHES IN BRIDGE AND TUNNEL CONSTRUCTION.
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article examines the problem of increasing environmental impact in transport infrastructure, particularly in bridge and tunnel construction. The aim of the study is to analyze environmentally efficient construction approaches applied in different countries. Within this framework, the experiences of Japan, Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden are explored, with a focus on methods to reduce waste, improve energy efficiency, and minimize the environmental impact of construction processes. The results highlight the possibilities of applying these practices in the context of Uzbekistan.
