Abstract:This report summarizes the major themes discussed during a peer exchange on resilience in transportation planning and project development that the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 5 jointly organized and convened April 3–4, 2017 in Chicago, Illinois. The objective of the meeting was to foster among practitioners primarily in EPA Region 5 states a meaningful exchange of ideas on issues and approaches for addressing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions analysis and resilience in transportation planning and project development process. It was anticipated that the event would help increase awareness among peers of how analyses of GHGs and future climatological conditions completed during planning stages might be incorporated in environmental documents. The meeting also offered stakeholders in neighboring states the opportunity to meet and connect with others working on resilience in transportation planning and project development. Appendix A provides the peer exchange agenda, while a complete list of participants is in Appendix B.
