Research Projects: Resilience in Transport Sector
The table below provides highlight of the research work undertaken in field of resilience within transport sector.
| Title | Thematic area / keywords | Description | Links |
|---|---|---|---|
| Futurenet - Future resilient transport networks | Infrastructure, Climate Change |
A resilient transport network is accounting for technology, infrastructure and climate changes. The Futurenet research project, led by the University of Birmingham, aims at providing tools for assessment and planning of resilient transport systems. |

Road Owners Getting to Grips with Climate Change |
Technical, transport, climate change |
The research program aims at providing road authorities all across Europe with knowledge and tools to oppose climate change. In road management, design rules have to be adapted, data collection must be updated and risk management methods are to be developed. |

State of the art of likely effect of climate change on current roads, ENR SRO3 report, October 2009 |
Technical, road maintenance, climate change |
This report shows how the predicted climate change will affect highways. When temperatures rise and precipitation increases, present design theory and construction techniques will have to be amended to accommodate for differences in climate. |

|
Climate Change Projections for Variables Affecting Road Networks in Europe, ENR SRO3 report, April 2010 |
Technical, Road maintenance, Climate change |
Climate change projections affecting the long-term performance of road networks in Europe are presented. The projections are based on climate simulations by regional climate models showing two plausible future emission scenarios. |
