Project Summary

To accelerate the development of Wuhan New Town into a world-class scientific and technological innovation center, a new 12.5-kilometer road will be constructed, becoming the main gateway between Wuhan and Wuhan New Town. This road will feature eight lanes in both directions, an auxiliary road with four lanes in both directions, three bridges, and 2.1 million cubic meters of earthwork. WISDRI had to work with a complex, limited site, coordinate numerous stakeholders, and adhere to high standards of quality. 

The organization turned to Bentley applications to improve design efficiency through 3D modeling. They used ProjectWise to quickly deliver information among the team and stakeholders, then they deployed iTwin and Bentley Open applications to create 3D models and refine all aspects of the project. Going digital helped them improve design efficiency by 25%, lower costs by CNY 60 million, and eliminate 25 days of construction. WISDRI plans to use the digital model to manage the entire lifecycle of the road.

A wide, multi-lane city road with heavy traffic. The road is bordered by trees with pink blossoms and lush green foliage. Bicycles paths and pedestrian walkways run parallel to the road.
