Abstract:

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) staff and our consultants regularly provide technical assistance and training to State departments of transportation (DOT). Through these interactions, we have determined that many transportation professionals view natural river functions, such as channel shifting and sediment movement, as important design concepts. However, some practitioners perceive these functions as either niche topics that require specialized expertise or as necessary inputs only with high risk projects or to meet regulatory requirements. Careful assessment and consideration of river processes is paramount for the safe, resilient, and ecologically sensitive design of transportation infrastructure in riverine environments. Many transportation professionals do not currently have the knowledge, tools, and confidence to practically apply these key concepts to their projects.
