Brilliant infrastructure is a showcase of human creativity and hard work. It includes amazing engineering and design that can change how areas look, bring people together, and push us forward. Think of famous bridges over large bodies of water or modern transit systems that make cities easier to navigate – these are examples of how people working together can make incredible things happen.

These structures do more than just their jobs; they also make our surroundings look better. The way they're designed combines how they look with what they do, making them both attractive and practical. Each piece of brilliant infrastructure tells a story of big ideas, careful planning, and lots of effort to make things perfect.

One of my favourite places, I once rented a car in Amsterdam for a day just to go there (and I've been once more since). It's so fun and also fascinating from an engineering perspective. Highly recommend the videos on it on YouTube, specifically from Tim Traveler and Tom Scott.

Infrastructure is like the backbone of strong economies. It helps things move, like goods and people and provides important things like energy and water for businesses. It's also needed for services we rely on, such as electricity, clean water, internet, transportation, healthcare, education, and protection from natural disasters.

Those are modular temporary bridges. Once the landslide is fixed they will be removed and the modules reused somewhere else. The claims floating online about it being constructed in 24 hours are false, it took four of months to build (there are calculations and checks to do before the actual building, and manufacturing the carpentry pillars).

In the past, infrastructure was constructed to address particular problems, like dealing with local concerns such as sanitation, flooding, or travel needs. Often, there was limited consideration for future requirements due to short-term politics. This has led to infrastructure becoming inadequate and overwhelmed as it rapidly reached its limits.

AI, cloud computing, and cybersecurity are changing infrastructure, showing it's going digital. Green infrastructure is also in demand. There are intentions to invest in urban spaces for walking, cycling, socializing, and dining. In the future, infrastructure needs better planning, using improved predictions for demand and weather changes. People will want smarter infrastructure that saves energy, improves buildings, and eases traffic. This improvement should come from using smart systems and data to make better decisions and predictions.

Vancouver can't grow west, can't grow north, and can't grow south. It can only grow east into valuable farmland, and they decided not to do that. They decided to instead grow the city UP. You can have your apartment, garage, super market, pharmacy, daycare, and, for many, even their place of employment in one building. They also have no freeways going straight into, or through, the city hence no debilitating traffic congestion. A truly smart city!
