Abstract

It is necessary to evaluate the construction effect of viaducts and identify the viaducts that play a key role in road networks. Based on the node deletion method, this article proposes a method to identify the importance of viaducts in road networks. After applying this method to simulate the importance of viaducts in the highway networks in Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces from 2001 to 2020, the results show the following: (1) The viaducts with high importance were mainly built in 2002, 2009, 2015, and 2016. They are mainly distributed on expressways such as the HUKUN Expressway, HANGRUI Expressway, and YINBAI Expressway. Among the viaducts, the Mengzhai Bridge and Beipanjiang Bridge Hukun are the most important. (2) The importance of viaducts will increase, decrease, or increase first and then decrease. Among the years studied, 2012 and 2016 are important time nodes for change. The trend of changes is affected by the construction of highways and viaducts in other locations. In this road network, there are strong coupling relationships between nodes. (3) The importance of some viaducts is not prominent in the whole region, but that does not mean their construction value is low. They may have a high connectivity effect on specific regions from a local perspective.

1 Introduction

Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces, located in the Yunnan–Guizhou Plateau, exhibit a fractured landscape composed of staggered valleys and ridges. Affected by the terrain, the transportation infrastructure of the two provinces lags far behind those of the plains and coastal regions, hindering local economic development [1]. In 2000, the density of highway mileage in Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces was only 0.254 km/km2, while in the same year, the highway mileage in Henan Province was 0.386 km/km2. To develop the economy of the western area, China implemented the Western Development Plan and improved the infrastructure in remote regions [2]. On this basis, Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces have built a number of viaducts in the past to improve the traffic conditions in backward mountainous areas. The scale and construction speed of these viaducts were beyond imagination. From 2001 to 2020, more than 266 viaducts over 100 m high were built in the two provinces. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the construction effect of the viaducts and identify the viaducts that play a key role in the road network. These tasks will help to maintain the existing viaducts and provide a reference for future bridge site selection.

However, previous evaluations of viaducts were mainly from the engineering perspective to analyze the seismic resistance capacity [3], structural performance [4], stress characteristics [5], and so on. But as viaducts link road networks, there are not only direct losses caused by viaducts’ physical damage but also indirect losses due to time delays in the transportation system [6]. Therefore, it is necessary to combine viaduct analysis with transportation network analysis in the viaduct evaluation. In previous studies, the evaluation of the connecting capacity of viaducts is often used in the post-disaster restoration field. For example, Merschman et al. proposed a decision framework to determine an optimal bridge repair sequence after a disruptive event [7]. Somy et al. developed a mathematical model to improve the resilience of road–bridge transportation networks in the recovery phase [8]. However, these studies discussed the repair sequence of bridges by calculating the changes in the road network’s performance after bridge repair rather than focusing on the characteristics and historical changes of the importance of the bridges in an undamaged road network. Based on the road network accessibility, this study proposed a method to identify the key viaduct nodes in the road network and explore the changes in their importance over the past 20 years.

The problem of identifying critical nodes in the network is widely recognized as a critical node detection problem. Methods to solve such problems can be divided into two categories. One is based on the statistical perspective, the most typical of which is the machine learning-based solutions at the forefront of research. For example, Yu et al. [9] and Munikoti et al. [10] used the convolutional neural network model and the graph neural network model to identify critical nodes in the network. However, sufficient training sample data are required to train the model, which cannot be satisfied in some application scenarios. Therefore, we chose another method, based on the mechanistic perspective, to study in the network analysis domain.

The node deletion method is often used in network analysis research. It was first proposed in 1982 by Corley and Sha, who wanted to find the most vital link in a network whose removal results in the greatest increase in the shortest distance between two nodes [11]. This method has extensive real-world applications [12], such as network attack response [13], biological molecular research [14], Internet of things-based system communication [15], social network analysis [16], and so on. Furthermore, in previous research on evaluating transportation networks, the node deletion method was often used to assess the importance of road sections. Taylor et al. identified vulnerable sections and nodes in an Australian road network by cutting the network at each link of the minimum path in succession [17]. Yin and Xu studied how road network connectivity and efficiency are affected by the disruption of intersections and road sections and identified the critical road sections and intersections [18]. Viljoen and Joubert simulated progressive random link disruption of an urban road network and assessed the impact this had on different network archetypes [19]. There are two treatments in the calculations. One is single node removal, where each road section is disconnected separately [20]. This scheme is easier to calculate, but the simulation scenario is relatively simple. The other is multi-node removal, where multiple road sections are disconnected at the same time [21]. This method can better simulate road failure in the real world, but it is complicated to determine the combination of disconnected road sections. Based on this idea, this article combined two treatment methods to disconnect the road sections where the viaducts are located and then calculated the changes in road network accessibility before and after the sections were disconnected. Then, we ranked the changes by size to evaluate the contributions of the viaducts to the overall transportation network.

Distance measures [22], cumulative opportunity [23], gravity or potential models [24], and other methods are commonly used in the evaluation of road network accessibility. These methods have their own merits and demerits. The cumulative opportunity measure is relatively simple but is sensitive to the given distance or travel time limit defined in its formulation [25]. The results of gravity models are delivered in less meaningful measurements. By comparison, the distance measures are more intuitive and suitable for the calculations of this study [26]. This approach uses different distance cost factors (i.e., distance, travel time, or money) as accessibility indicators, including relative accessibility and integral accessibility [26]. Based on the geometric network of the traffic road network, this article selected the average integral accessibility index to measure the road network accessibility of the Yunnan–Guizhou region with time distance cost as the measurement unit.

The remainder of this article is organized as follows. Section 2 introduces the areas of study and the data used. Section 3 gives the definition and calculation formula of viaduct importance based on road accessibility. Section 4 shows the results of currently important viaducts and the changes in their importance from 2001 to 2020. Section 5 gives some examples illustrating our calculation results to verify the feasibility of the calculation method. Finally, Section 6 concludes this study.

2 Study area and data

2.1 Study area

The study area includes Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces, located in Southwest China (97°30′–109°40′E, 21°–29°20′N), covering approximately 570,000 km2 (Figure 1). The main part of the two provinces is the Yunnan–Guizhou Plateau, where the plateau and mountain areas account for 92.5% and 94% of the provinces’ total areas, respectively [27,28]. The landform undulates terribly at elevations ranging from 76 to 6,456 m. The Yunnan–Guizhou Plateau is the origin or flow place of the Nujiang River, Lancang–Mekong River, Jinsha River, and others, and they have formed deep canyons. Otherwise, karst landforms are very typical in the study area, with the karst area of Guizhou Province measured at 109,084 km2, accounting for 61.9% of the province’s total land area [28]. Therefore, the topography in the area is very complex, hindering the development of transportation.

Figure 1

Distribution of viaducts built in Yunnan–Guizhou area from 2001 to 2020.

Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces have jurisdiction over 14 prefecture-level cities and 11 autonomous prefectures, including 217 county-level administrative regions. Affected by location, terrain, and other factors, the economic development of most of the county-level administrative regions in Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces is relatively backward. For example, the per capita GDP of Guizhou and Yunnan Provinces was 46,267 yuan and 51,975 yuan in 2020, ranking 28th and 23rd in China, respectively [29]. In addition, the economic development of Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces has great regional differences, with low levels of development found in remote mountainous areas. For example, the per capita GDP of Zhenxiong County in Yunnan Province was 16,145 yuan, which was only one-third of the per capita GDP of Yunnan Province [30]. Therefore, the evaluation of key traffic nodes is very important.

2.2 Data

The highway data, updated through October 2020, come from the OpenStreetMap dataset (https://www.openstreetmap.org). The topological relationships of highway intersections are verified manually. The expressway network data in 2000, 2005, 2010, and 2015 are provided by the National Earth System Science Data Center, National Science & Technology Infrastructure of China (http://www.geodata.cn). A list of viaducts built in the 2001–2020 period is provided by the HighestBridges website (https://www.highestbridges.com) in tabular form. The table contains each viaduct’s name, year built, height, main span length, and other relevant information. In this study, a total of 266 viaducts above 100 m were selected. Their geographical positions were marked manually based on remote sensing images from Map World. The administrative scope of the base map in this article comes from the Resource and Environmental Science Data Center, Chinese Academy of Sciences (http://www.resdc.cn).

3 Methods

This study simulated the changes in the importance of viaducts in the highway networks in Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces (Figure 2). The highway data in 2020 were obtained to assign speed according to the grade of the road, i.e., 90 km/h for expressways and 60 km/h for other highways. The highway data and the county administrative regions were combined to build the network dataset. In the network dataset, the average integral accessibility was calculated before and after the studied viaduct was removed from the network dataset. The difference between the two average integral accessibilities was considered the importance of the studied viaduct. After the importance of all bridges was calculated, all the viaducts built in 2020 were removed from the network dataset to build the assumed historical network dataset in 2019. Then, the above steps were repeated to obtain the importance of viaducts in 2019. Afterward, all the viaducts built in 2019 were removed to build the historical network dataset in 2018, and so on, until the importance of viaducts in the 2001 network dataset was calculated.

Because of the difficulty of obtaining detailed highway data for each year, this study took the highways in 2020 as the benchmark and removed viaducts to simulate the inverse process of viaducts connecting highways through construction. When studying the importance of viaducts in a given year, it is assumed that the viaducts built after that year were in a disconnection state. Under this assumption, the calculation results of remote years are more uncertain. However, the calculation results can be considered the importance of viaducts under the best traffic conditions at that time.

The average integral accessibility index (A) was calculated to reflect the overall road accessibility of the study area [31]. The value of A was calculated as

A = i = 1 n j = 1 n T ij n ( i j ) ,

where T ij is the shortest travel time between county i and county j, and n is the number of county administrative regions in the study area.

4 Results

4.1 Importance of current viaducts

Based on the current highway network, viaducts were removed from the network dataset. The differences in average integral accessibility before and after removing viaducts were calculated to reflect the importance of each viaduct in the highway network. The greater the importance is, the greater the impact of the viaduct’s removal on the highway network in Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces. The differences were arranged according to the values to obtain the importance ranking of the viaducts (Table A1).

The viaducts with high importance were mainly built in 2002, 2009, 2015, and 2016 (Figure 3). Among them, the Mengzhai Bridge and Beipanjiang Bridge Hukun, which were both built in 2009, are the most important. If these viaducts were removed, the average integral accessibility of each county administrative area would increase by 19.95325 h. The Balinghe Bridge takes second place, as its removal would increase the average integral accessibility by 17.93804 h. In addition, there are 70 viaducts whose importance is 0; their removal would not affect the average integral accessibility in the study area.

With its spatial distribution of the importance classifications of the viaducts, Figure 4 shows that the viaducts with high importance are distributed on the expressways. Among them, the viaducts along the HUKUN Expressway are the most important, followed by the viaducts along the HANGRUI Expressway and YINBAI Expressway.

4.2 Change in viaducts’ importance from 2001 to 2020

Since it is difficult to obtain detailed highway network data for every year, based on the highway data of 2020, viaducts were removed from the highway network dataset year by year from 2020 to simulate the highway network data for each year. Afterward, the importance levels of the viaducts for each year were calculated to obtain the changes in viaduct importance.

The results show that the importance of the viaducts in the highway network changed over time during the construction process of highways and other viaducts (Figure 5). Among them, 2012 and 2016 are important time nodes for change. The importance of most viaducts decreased after their construction. The viaducts with high importance, such as the Mengzhai Bridge, Beipanjiang Bridge Hukun, Balinghe Bridge, and Shayingou Bridge, have decreased in importance since 2012, reducing by more than 45%. However, there are other trends in the importance of some viaducts. In 2016, the importance of the Qingshuihe Bridge, Maweihe Bridge, and Xiaowan Bridge increased by more than 4 h. In addition, there are coupling relationships between viaducts. The importance of viaducts will always be affected by other viaducts, so their importance levels will rise and fall in complex combinations.

5 Discussion

5.1 Spatial distribution of viaduct importance in 2020

Within the whole road network, viaducts in some positions are of prominent importance (Figure 4). The viaducts between Guiyang and Kunming are the most important. They are mainly distributed on the HUKUN Expressway and HANGRUI Expressway, which are critical roads between Yunnan and Guizhou, promoting communication between the two provinces. In addition, since the HUKUN Expressway is the shortest path between the two provincial capitals, the viaducts on this expressway play a key role in connecting transport hub cities. They have high betweenness [32] and strong control ability over the whole network.

Viaducts on the YINBAI Expressway and the western section of the HANGRUI Expressway are also of high importance. The viaducts on the YINBAI Expressway help Guiyang, the provincial capital, control the eastern region of Guizhou and promote communication between the Yunnan–Guizhou area and the eastern provinces. The viaducts on the HANGRUI Expressway help western Yunnan communicate with other counties by expressway for the first time, effectively promoting the connection of mountainous areas in western Yunnan.

5.2 Case analysis of changes in importance

After viaduct construction, their importance will change over time, usually due to the construction of other road sections and viaducts. In the case of different viaduct interactions, the importance of viaducts will increase, decrease, or increase first and then decrease over time. Some cases are explored in the following text to explain this situation.

The orange circles in Figure 6 represent a series of viaducts whose importance decreased over time. These viaducts were built in 2009 at the junction of the two provinces. They connected the first expressway between the two provinces, which is also the shortest path between the capital cities of the two provinces. Before that, Yunnan and Guizhou were connected only through ordinary highways. Therefore, these viaducts had high importance from the beginning of their construction.

Figure 6 
                  Examples of viaducts whose importance decreased after their construction.
Figure 6

Examples of viaducts whose importance decreased after their construction.

However, the importance of these viaducts decreased significantly from 2012 to 2016. That is because with the continuous construction of infrastructure in Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces, an increasing number of viaducts were built, and the expressway networks were continuously improved. There were more alternative routes available for traffic. Therefore, when these viaducts built in 2009 are removed, the impact on traffic is less than before.

However, there are some viaducts whose importance improved after their construction. For example, on the HANGRUI Expressway in southwest Yunnan, the Gaoligongshan Bridge and Fozhangshan Bridge were completed in 2002 (Figure 7). The importance of these two viaducts was not high at the time; in particular, the importance of the Fozhangshan Bridge was 0. However, when the Nansilu Bridge was completed in 2007, the expressway was finally opened to traffic. Therefore, the importance of the Gaoligongshan Bridge and Fozhangshan Bridge was greatly improved 5 years after their construction.

Figure 7 
                  Examples of viaducts whose importance increased after their construction.
Figure 7

Examples of viaducts whose importance increased after their construction.

The change in viaducts’ importance is influenced by the elements of the whole traffic system. When different situations are combined, there are complex changes in the increase and decrease of viaducts’ importance. For example, the Shimenkan Bridge was the first to be built on the XIARONG Expressway in 2010, and its importance was very low at the time (Figure 8). By 2011, after the construction of the other two viaducts (the Bailupo Bridge and Bamaochong Bridge) on the same expressway, the importance of the Shimenkan Bridge was improved. Because the Bamaochong Bridge and Shimenkan Bridge are close to each other, their importance has always been the same. In 2019, another expressway was opened, along which the Daxiaojing Bridge, Pingtang Bridge, Shahe Bridge, and others were built. This expressway shared some of the traffic pressure of the XIARONG Expressway, whose irreplaceability was reduced. Therefore, the importance of the Shimenkan Bridge, Bailupo Bridge, and Bamaochong Bridge decreased in 2019.

Figure 8 
                  Examples of viaducts whose importance increased and then decreased after their construction.

5.3 Viaducts with low importance still matter

The improvement of transportation infrastructure, such as bridges, can promote regional economic growth and social development [33,34]. However, the construction of viaducts requires capital and technical investment, so it is necessary to consider the relationship between the construction cost and the effect of viaducts. When we observed the regularity of viaducts’ importance changing with time (Figure 5), we found that the early stage of viaduct construction had an apparent effect. Particularly for the viaducts built in 2009, their importance was very high. However, after 2009, plenty of viaducts with comparatively low importance were still constructed. To understand the reasons for building these viaducts in the highway network, we explored the construction law of viaducts.

By illustrating the expressway network from 2000 to 2020, Figure 9a shows that the expressway network in the Yunnan–Guizhou area has increasingly improved. In 2001, the density of the expressway network was only 0.001452 km/km2. The network structure was incomplete and mainly distributed around provincial capital cities. In 2010, the expressway network initially reached a certain scale, forming a ring-radial road network with Kunming and Guiyang as the center. This network pattern enabled a connection between major cities and significantly improved the road accessibility of the region. Then, the expressway network gradually improved. By 2020, Guizhou had basically formed a mature square net-grid road network. In this situation, Guizhou’s road accessibility was further improved, and more counties were included in the expressway network.

Figure 9 
                  (a) Process of expressway development, and (b) distribution of viaducts built in different years.
Figure 9

(a) Process of expressway development, and (b) distribution of viaducts built in different years.

Comparing the spatial distribution pattern of viaducts and highways, Figure 9 shows that with the change in the road network structure, the status of viaducts also changes. The viaducts before 2009 were mainly built on the radial road system. Due to their special location, they are of high importance. With the continuous construction of expressways, there was a need for further improvement of the road network. Therefore, the construction of subsequent viaducts was mainly used to improve the road network, and the geographical location was not as important as before. Among them, the viaducts in Guizhou were built to improve the gridiron road system and strengthen the robustness of the road network. The viaducts in Yunnan were built to expand the radial road system and enhance the connectivity between Kunming and remote mountainous areas, promoting economic development in these poor areas.

However, the importance of viaducts in the whole region is not prominent enough, which does not mean their construction value is low. In some areas, the construction of viaducts plays a vital role. For example, the Jinshajiang Bridge Taoyuan, built in 2020, is located on the DAYONG Expressway (Figure 10). It crosses the Ludila hydropower station reservoir in the Jinsha River valley, extending the DAYONG Expressway northbound to Yongsheng County. Although overall, it reduces the average integral accessibility of each county administrative area by only 1.72 h, it is an irreplaceable viaduct for Yongsheng County to join the expressway network. If this viaduct was removed, the integral accessibility of Yongsheng County would change from 1,899 to 1961.73 h, an increase of 62.73 h. The Jinshajiang Bridge Taoyuan promotes communication between Yongsheng County and Dali, Kunming, and other cities and is an important factor in promoting the economic development of Yongsheng County.

6 Conclusions

Based on road accessibility indices, this study simulated the importance of viaducts in the highway networks in Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces from 2001 to 2020. Several conclusions can be drawn.

This study calculated the importance of viaducts and ranked them according to their values. The viaducts with high importance were mainly built in 2002, 2009, 2015, and 2016. These viaducts are mainly distributed on expressways, such as the HUKUN Expressway, HANGRUI Expressway, and YINBAI Expressway.

After viaduct construction, the importance of viaducts will increase, decrease, or increase first and then decrease over time. Among the years studied, 2012 and 2016 are important time nodes for change. The trend of changes is affected by the construction of highways and viaducts in other locations. In road networks, there are strong coupling relationships between nodes. Therefore, the location of a viaduct should be considered by its place within the whole road network.

The importance of some viaducts is not prominent in the whole region; however, this does not mean that their construction value is low. From a local perspective, they may have a high connectivity effect on specific regions.

There are also some limitations in this study. First, the status of the county-level administrative districts in road networks is equal. It would be more realistic if the counties were given weight according to their socioeconomic status. Second, due to the limitations in data acquisition, this study just calculated the impact of viaduct removal on the average integral accessibility from the perspective of individual traffic. In the future, traffic flow data can be used to measure the importance of viaducts considering expressway capacity. Third, the impact of viaduct construction on domains such as poverty alleviation and ecological protection was not thoroughly elaborated. Considering these factors in the calculation will improve the comprehensiveness of the viaduct evaluation. In addition, the study considered only the highway network in the Yunnan–Guizhou area. In the future, calculations can be based on the national highway network so that the connections between Yunnan and Guizhou and other provinces also can be considered.
