Abstract:

This presentation discusses the Michigan DOT's effort to integrate climate risk into their transportation asset management plan. It begins by identifying assets at risk as well as climate variables such as temperature, and precipitation. It then uses this information for a statewide risk analysis on bridges and roadways, noting particularly at-risk areas such as Trunkline, Pump, and Culvert.
