Abstract:

This assessment investigates potential structural and hydraulic engineering adaptations to increase the resilience of a coastal bridge to extreme events in rising sea levels. The assessment focuses on the I-10 Bridge, which crosses northern Mobile Bay, Alabama (known locally as “The Bayway”). The seven-mile long bridge crosses open bay waters, coastal marshes, and tidal rivers.
