Through systematic identification of construction risk factors under complex urban conditions, a refined risk engineering checklist is compiled, a customized monitoring system is designed, a risk identification‑assessment‑early warning framework is established with operable emergency plans, standardized monitoring operation procedures are formulated, and dynamic optimization of the monitoring scheme is achieved. The research develops a set of monitoring technical systems adaptable to complex urban environments, providing a practical and feasible technical solution and engineering practice reference for subway tunnel construction monitoring under such conditions.</abstract><keywords>Complex urban environment, Subway tunnel construction, Construction monitoring, Monitoring system design</keywords></article-meta></front><body/><back><ref-list><ref id="B1" content-type="article"><label>1</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>[1] &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Guangming Online, 2025, In March This Year, 326 Urban Rail Transit Lines Were in Operation in 54 Cities Across the Country, Carrying 2.88 Billion Passenger Trips.
