Protecting the Transportation Sector From the Negative Impacts of Climate Change

Abstract: Observed and projected climate changes, such as temperature increase, sea-level rise and increases in the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, are posing challenges to critical infrastructure operations, especially in the transportation sector, which is a pillar of economy and society. Like the other critical infrastructure sectors, the transportation sector comprises complex systems with responsibilities distributed across many stakeholders. The challenges to implementing integrated climate chan… Show more

“…Instead, they propose replacing them with low-impact or environmentally friendly transportation modes such as public transportation, walking, and cycling, in order to have an impact on the natural ecosystem, quality of life, human health, and well-being. (Lykou et al, 2017) also expressed the presence of a set of strategies that can contribute to reducing toxic emissions from transportation systems, mitigating climate change. These strategies include, firstly, collaboration among stakeholders within and outside the transportation sector, which is of utmost importance to benefit from the knowledge gained from other vital infrastructure sectors and develop innovative and efficient solutions to adapt transportation infrastructure to climate change impacts.…”

“…Research about climate change and sea level rise impacts on transportation systems has emerged very recently (Asadabadi & Miller-Hooks, 2017;Asariotis, 2020;Chen & Region, 2019;Fishman, 2018;Jones, 2017;Kwiatkowski, 2017;Lykou et al, 2017;Meguro & Ogi, 2018;Papakonstantinou et al, 2020;Shen & Kim, 2020;Tewari & Palmer, 2018;Tonn et al, 2021;Wang et al, 2020;Zhou et al, 2019). Several attempts have been made to quantify climate risks, adaptation, and transportation planning (Bloetscher et al, 2012;Burkett, 2002;Freckleton et al, 2012;Lambert et al, 2013;Steyn, 2014;Tang et al, 2013;Webster et al, 2013).…”

“…Nevertheless, it is necessary to address the restrictions of their work. As an illustration, the majority of these studies only concentrated on addressing the direct impacts of sea level rise on transportation systems (Asariotis, 2020;Burkett, 2002;Lykou et al, 2017;Titus, 2002). Some of them attempted to identify the physical transportation infrastructure at risk and to assess the vulnerability of transportation systems due to future scenarios of sea level rise (Bloetscher et al, 2012;Chen & Region, 2019;Fishman, 2018;Shen & Kim, 2020;Tang et al, 2013;Webster et al, 2013).…”
