Addressing Climate Resilience and Greenhouse Gases in the Transportation Planning Process

Monday, March 25, 2024 - 13:30

Many state departments of transportation (DOTs) are undergoing organizational changes to address climate change. Changes range from hiring additional staff to creating new offices within the organizational structure of the agency. State requirements in the form of legislation, executive orders, and climate action plans are primary drivers for state DOT involvement with climate change.

NCHRP Synthesis 624: Addressing Climate Resilience and Greenhouse Gases in the Transportation Planning Process, from TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program, documents practices and procedures at state DOTs regarding climate change. The report and supplement are available from the TRB web site at https://www.trb.org/Main/Blurbs/183235.aspx
