In 2011, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) selected seven pilot teams from across the country to conduct climate change adaptation assessments. The pilot projects were intended to advance the state of practice for adapting transit systems to the impacts of climate change. The selected projects assessed the vulnerability of transit agency assets and services to climate change hazards such as heat waves and flooding and developed initial adaptation strategies that fit with their transit agency’s structure and operations. The pilot project effort is part of FTA’s climate adaptation initiative, which also includes an adaptation report, workshops, and webinars. |
