Best-practice guidelines for the adaptation of roads to climate change Elena de la Peña Chair TC1 – Smart Mobility STA Deputy Director Spanish Road Association 2018 STA Annual Conference 27 November 2018

Why? In Latin America & Caribbean Region, 1 of each 4 $ of losses for natural disasters affects transport sector Road infrastructure is highly exposed to rain and flooding. For example, 39% of the main road network of Colombia shows high risk Risks should be included in the institutional culture. Risks analysis should be considered in every decision: planning, regulations, projects, etc. Adaptation of roads to climate change involves: Considering lessons learned. Implementation of measures to reduce future costs. Maximize investments. CAF (Development Bank of Latin America) proposed the development of Best-practice Guidelines for adaptation of roads to climate change

What? Best-practice guidelines with the following objectives: Provide an answer to basic questions about the importance of incorporating climate adaptation measures in highway projects. Guide public policy makers to identify measures that can be applied to highway projects. Identify specific measures that can be implemented in road projects and in the road network in service, throughout its life cycle.

How? Stage 1: Specific survey to public and private sector. Successful experiences and best- practices: Institutional: Creation of Directorate of Adaptation to Climate Change and Strategic Risk Management (DACGER) within the Ministry of Public Works of El Salvador. Plans: Plan Vías-CC: roads compatible with the climate. Adaptation plan for the primary road network (Colombia) Plan for the adaptation of federal highways to recurrent natural disasters (Brazil) Technical references: Inclusion of criteria for adaptation to climate change in the Handbook of highways (Chile). Analysis: Study of climate risk for Colombia's primary road network at the national level (Colombia) Evaluation of the impact of El Niño 2015-2016 in the transport and communication sector (Paraguay). Assessment of vulnerability and adaptation to climate change in the transport sector (Peru). Stage 1: Specific survey to public and private sector. Stage 2: Analysis of the state of the art in the Region and worldwide. Stage 3: Development of Guidelines. Stage 4: Workshops and dissemination activities.

Structure of Guidelines Step 4: Measures for adaptation. Step 3: Collaborative working environment. Step 2: Sectorial plans for adaptation. Step 1: Institutional commitment. Strategic pyramid of adaptation to climate change

Structure of Guidelines 21 engineering measures Geotechnics & Slopes Drainage & Hydraulics Structures Pavement

Conclussions 1 There are several barriers for the implementation of adaptation measures: institutional, financial, technical, political, social, etc. 2 3 There is a long way to go. Specific funds for adaptation of roads are required. These Guidelines are the contribution of CAF to improve knowledge about the importance to consider adaptation measures in roads.
