Developing climate-resilient and eco-sustainable railway earthwork by mitigating geohazards while balancing biodiversity (RESOLVE)

Forskningsprojekt, 2025 – 2029

Railway networks are important for economic and social progress, but they face increasing challenges due to climate change and ageing, demanding a significant increase in maintenance investment. Traditional approaches to railway infrastructure management often neglect the capability of nature-based solutions to mitigate natural hazards while enhancing nature restoration and biodiversity. With the support of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the RESOLVE project aims to revolutionise railway earthwork management by integrating engineering with life sciences. Leveraging advanced technologies like AI and earth observation as well as nature-based solutions, RESOLVE seeks to enhance climate resilience, promote biodiversity, and foster eco-friendly construction practices across Europe.
