Deep Shanghai project - A strategy of infrastructure integration for megacities

Integration between municipal infrastructures and underground infrastructures is beneficial for the long-term operation of megacities, where utility systems and municipal facilities keep sizing up to meet future demand. Infrastructure integration becomes a must rather than an option. Developing Special Transport Systems in the Deep Underground Space (DUS) will allow a megacity to scale up its infrastructure stock, save surface land resources, protect societal assets, mitigate calamity losses, sustain operability and improve livability.
