The protection measures are as follows: pave the formal road surface with a thickness of more than 50mm, and pave the roadbed or 30mm or thick steel plate after compaction, and remove it after the lifting is completed. For the informal road surface in the lifting area: The informal road surface in the lifting area near the torch facility is treated by the replacement cushion method, with gravel backfill of about 500mm thick, rolling and compaction, and the compaction coefficient is not less than 0.95, and finally the roadbed is pave to further enhance the ground endurance.
