In view of the situation that the tunnel of Hangzhou Metro Line 6 underneath passed the Yongjiu River, the influences of the construction of the new double-line tunnel on the seepage field and stress field of the shallow buried water-rich sand layer were analyzed, and the ground reinforcement measures to ensure the safety of shield construction was proposed. The results show that: (1) After the tunnel is excavated, the seepage field gradually returns to the original seepage field, but there is still a slight disturbance in the seepage field within 30 m below the arch bottom; (2) The maximum displacement and maximum principal stress of the tunnel model are located at the bottom of the arch; (3) It is necessary to fully consider the conditions of the river, control the settlement and cracking of the foundation, and prevent the occurrence of gushing.
