The objective of this pilot study was to evaluate the impacts of climate change on the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART) infrastructure and to develop and implement adaptation strategies against those impacts. Climate change hazards considered are sea-level rise, downpours, and flooding. The study focuses on four specific types of assets: station and maintenance facilities, track and aerial structures, train control, and traction power. It evaluates the current and future impacts of the hazards and uses this information to assess the risk of four specific assets. Adaptation strategies are developed and linked to various departments within the organization. |
