| 摘要： | This report presents the results of a Climate Resilience Pilot Project conducted by the Maryland State Highway Administration (SHA) and sponsored in part by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The primary objectives of the Pilot Study are to assess the vulnerability of SHA’s transportation assets (roads and bridges) to climate variables or stressors, to develop engineering approaches to address current and future climate induced risks and to make recommendations for policy or process changes to improve the resiliency of Maryland’s highway system. This Pilot Study serves as a model from which SHA will be able to establish the framework and process for asset vulnerability assessment, prioritization, and adaptation in response to climate change. Another objective of the Pilot Study is interagency knowledge transfer and mutual capacity building. As such, the Pilot Study will share information on methods used and lessons learned with other state Departments of Transportations and government agencies for the purpose of expanding the transportation sector’s ability to respond to ongoing climate change impacts across jurisdictions. |
