2. The building of the new bridge will go ahead as it is planned.


(Does #1 mean #2? Is 'it is' deleted?)

3. Lee was standing right behind her.
4. Lee was standing just behind her. 1. The building of the new bridge will go ahead as planned.

2. The building of the new bridge will go ahead as it is planned.
(Is 'right' the same as 'just'?)

1 and 2 mean the same thing, yes.

3 and 4 mean the same thing, too.
--------------------------
1. The building of the new bridge will go ahead as planned.

2. The building of the new bridge will go ahead as it is planned.

2-2. 2. The building of the new bridge will go ahead as it was planned.

(Thank you for your help. Does #1 mean #2 or #2-2? In # 2-2, the past tense is used)

Answer 1

You can use past tense in the third sentence if you wish, but it's not necessary.

Answer 2

1, 2, 3, 4. Yes

"Was" better than "is," because planning was done previously.
