Abstract: With the large-scale urban underground space development, the storage of the wasted soil from these developments has created a series of increased social economic and environmental concerns. It is of great significance to the ecological management, redevelopment of the waste soil storage sites and other areas to enhance the image, to convert them into an ecological friendly and sustainable development modern city. This paper presents a case history of the construction project of Wuhan Baozi Creek ecological scenery corridor. Based on the site exploration, sampling, evaluation and analysis of geological environment of the existing site, geological environmental aspects of the site were severely damaged by the large amount of waste soil storage. The engineering concerns were included: slope stability on the nonengineered high random fills; ground subsidence induced by the waste soil fills; hydrological and groundwater condition changes; engineering considerations on these random high waste soil fills. These concerns are discussed in the paper and recommendation of the redevelopment are also proposed.
