Abstract:

This handbook provides information on integrating climate change resilience into transportation agencies’ transportation planning processes. This handbook is primarily focused on long-range plans and transportation improvement plans, but many of the approaches are applicable to other plans, such as transportation asset management plans and corridor plans, which are also discussed briefly in this handbook. The handbook provides approaches to build resilience to natural disasters, extreme weather events, climate change, mitigation of stormwater, and other natural hazards for each step in the transportation planning process. This handbook is designed to meet agencies where they are and includes a quick start guide to help agencies assess their progress and identify appropriate next steps. For each step in the planning process, the handbook provides examples and resources to assist agencies in identifying resilience challenges and implementing resilience integration actions.
