摘要: Hurricanes, storms and floods damage roads, bridges, transit lines and other elements of our transportation infrastructure. Restoring the transportation infrastructure is widely recognized as an important element of short-term recovery as the reconstruction of the built environment and other elements of long-term recovery are dependent on a functional transportation system. Legislated requirements for risk-based asset management plans suggest that infrastructure systems should recognize the potential risks of extreme weather events, including mitigation, restoration and emergency services. However, asset management plans also need to understand the demand for transportation services — regrettably, little is understood of these interactions. Based on surveys of residents of Oakwood Beach, New York and Sea Bright, New Jersey, we found that the decision to rebuild or relocate after Hurricane Sandy was influenced by the available transportation services. We also found that little effort has been made to connect household decisions related to rebuilding to the asset management process. Most importantly, the MAP-21 and FAST Act requirements for risk-based asset management underscore the need to integrate the risks of natural hazards and the risks involved in assessing future demand in the context of the hazards. While NYSDOT recognized these elements, much work remains to operationalize them. This project serves as a foundation for future work in this area.
