As an important form and component of China's transportation network, highways occupy a very important position and play a very important role in the entire transportation network. At the same time, in the process of rapid socio-economic development, highways also play a very important driving role. Therefore, competition in the highway industry is becoming increasingly fierce. With the development of the times and the advancement of technology, people have begun to realize the importance of highway design, and at the same time, in the process of project implementation, the importance of highway design has gradually been put into practice. However, due to the current stage of highway design, it is easily influenced by various factors such as technology and cognitive level, resulting in many problems in the current stage of highway design, which hinders the improvement of the transportation capacity of the entire transportation network to a certain extent. At present, in highway design In the process of carrying out the work, there was no detailed and comprehensive understanding of the actual traffic situation of functional highways, which led to the emergence of problems of planning and design that were not in line with the surrounding environment. In addition, in the process of carrying out highway design work, insufficient attention has been paid to green environmental protection, and the concept of environmental protection is lacking, resulting in certain differences between highway design schemes and livable city construction schemes. For highway transportation, road design is an important guarantee for the stable development of economic, social, and cultural activities. Due to the complex and variable terrain structure, in order to ensure the reliable quality of highway construction, it is necessary to fully grasp and implement the design focus. Therefore, this book first provides an overview of new concepts and practices in highway design, and then starts from the perspectives of BIM technology application, project schedule management, beautiful highway landscape ecological design, and mountainous highway route design. Combining specific cases, it explores new concepts and practical issues in highway design. Finally, based on the background of the big data era, it studies the opportunities and challenges faced by highway survey and design, aiming to provide reference for the development of related research and practical work.
