Posted Tue Mar 11 2008: from National Research Council (US):
Climate Change Will Have Significant Impact On Transportation Infrastructure And Operations http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1205276418
"While every mode of transportation in the U.S. will be affected as the climate changes, potentially the greatest impact on transportation systems will be flooding of roads, railways, transit systems, and airport runways in coastal areas because of rising sea levels and surges brought on by more intense storms, says a new report from the National Research Council. Though the impacts of climate change will vary by region, it is certain they will be widespread and costly in human and economic terms, and will require significant changes in the planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of transportation systems."
