Submission received: 5 June 2025 / Accepted: 9 June 2025 / Published: 11 June 2025
The journal retracts the article titled “A Comprehensive Framework for Evaluating Bridge Resilience: Safety, Social, Environmental, and Economic Perspectives” [1], cited above.
Following publication, the authors contacted the Editorial Office regarding an overlap between the data and figures presented in this paper [1] and an unpublished PhD dissertation [2] produced by a different author, as well as an inaccuracy in a figure description.
Adhering to our standard procedure, the Editorial Office and Editorial Board conducted an investigation that confirmed a significant overlap of methods used, data, and figures between these two works [1,2], without appropriate acknowledgment or permission. Further evaluation also confirmed a significant inaccuracy in the description of Figure 6 and related data. As a result, the Editorial Board has decided to retract this paper as per MDPI’s retraction policy (https://www.mdpi.com/ethics#_bookmark30).
This retraction was approved by the Editor-in-Chief of Sustainability.
All authors agreed to this retraction. Dr. Yanjie Liu assumes full responsibility for the overlaps and inaccuracies leading to this decision.
