Book Description
Over the past 15 years, the nation’s transportation systems have experienced numerous significant disruptions that have resulted in economic loss and loss of human life. The 2020 COVID-19 pandemic is a recent example of how unexpected events can affect the performance and role of transportation systems. The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's NCHRP Web-Only Document 293: Deploying Transportation Resilience Practices in State DOTs examines the concept of transportation system resilience and how state departments of transportation could mainstream resilience-related approaches and procedures into their culture. The document is related to NCHRP Research Report 970: Mainstreaming System Resilience Concepts into Transportation Agencies: A Guide. Supplemental materials to the report include RISE Posters and the Program and Highlights from the Transportation Resilience Innovations Summit and Exchange in October 2018.

Book Description
Transportation officials recognize that a reliable and sustainable transportation system is needed to fulfil their agency’s mission and goals. The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's pre-publication draft of NCHRP Research Report 970: Mainstreaming System Resilience Concepts into Transportation Agencies: A Guide provides transportation officials with a self-assessment tool to assess the current status of an agency’s efforts to improve the resilience of the transportation system through the mainstreaming of resilience concepts into agency decision-making and procedures. The tool can be applied to a broad array of natural and human-caused threats to transportation systems and services. Supplemental materials to the report include a Posters Compilation and the Program Agenda from the 2018 Transportation Resilience Innovations Summit and Exchange, and a PowerPoint Presentation on resilience.

Addressing Climate Change Resilience and Greenhouse Gases in the Transportation Planning Process
Author: John Zamura
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780309709668
Category : Climatic changes
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"Many state departments of transportation (DOTs) are undergoing organizational changes to address climate change. Changes range from hiring additional staff to creating new offices within the organizational structure of the agency. State requirements in the form of legislation, executive orders, and climate action plans are primary drivers for state DOT involvement with climate change. NCHRP Synthesis 624: Addressing Climate Resilience and Greenhouse Gases in the Transportation Planning Process, from TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program, documents practices and procedures at state DOTs regarding climate change. Supplemental to the report is Appendix C, a compilation of weblinks to state climate change documents."--publisher's website
