Prioritize transportation infrastructure for resilience investments, particularly evacuation routes.

STRATEGIES

RR-5.1 Identify vulnerable roadways and bridges using tools such as the University of Florida Sea Level Scenario Sketch Planning Tool.

RR-5.2 Determine the current resilience of evacuation routes by mapping them against projected climate impacts, including sea level rise and king tides.

RR-5.3 Integrate climate adaptation into the standards for designing transportation infrastructure.

RR-5.4 Provide the Florida Department of Transportation with information on localized flooding and sea level rise impacts.

RR-5.5 Plan for and incorporate increased use of electric vehicles to provide necessary infrastructure along evacuation routes, such as charging stations. Consider deployable/mobile charging stations along evacuation routes.
