bridge management strategies. Bridges classified within higher susceptibility classes represent priority candidates for detailed field inspections, site-specific investigations, and the implementation of continuous monitoring and targeted mitigation measures. The integration of satellite interferometric data provides an objective and large-scale tool for identifying ongoing ground deformation, enhancing the decision-making process for infrastructure managers. Overall, the study demonstrates that a guideline-oriented and data-driven approach can significantly improve the assessment of landslide susceptibility affecting existing bridges. The application to 250 bridges in the Caserta province confirms the practical value of the framework for regulatory compliance, resource allocation, and long-term infrastructure resilience. The proposed workflow is transferable to other regions and can support science-based risk management and maintenance planning for vulnerable bridge networks.
