Project

Support for Impacts of Climate Change and Variability on Transportation Systems and Infrastructure

Gulf Coast Study, Phase 2

Categorized Under: Climate, Transportation

 

 

For the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), ICF is performing an in-depth assessment of transportation assets across all modes for a Gulf Coast metropolitan planning organization (MPO) to

  1. identify critical assets
  2. assess climate impacts on those assets
  3. assess vulnerability
  4. perform detailed engineering assessments of vulnerable infrastructure, including a review and analysis of adaptation options

The results of this MPO-specific research and analysis will inform the development of risk management tools, templates, and architectures that will be used by the planning agency in the study region to decide what infrastructure or transportation programs need protecting and to prioritize efforts to protect, accommodate, or relocate assets. ICF will apply the risk assessment tools in developing outreach, training, and education materials and will develop a final report summarizing the project findings.
