Abstract

Being an effective means to implementing sustainable development strategy, strategic environmental assessment (SEA) is an assessment process of implementing project environmental impact at strategic level. Highway construction can effectively stimulate regional economic growth, while can cause serious environmental problems, so it is necessary to measure highway construction sustainability through the strategic environmental assessment. Based on the system analysis of environmental pollution caused by freeway construction about land resources, water resources, ecological resources, atmospheric environment, and entropy–AHP strategic environmental assessment method was used. And the expert subjective opinion and objective ecological data were combined. Finally, this method was used to empirical study on Jiangsu four area highways. The result shows that the method can effectively reflect the ecological environmental impact of highway construction.
