What is Transportation Resiliency?

Transportation resiliency is vital to our complex network of infrastructure, communications, economy, tourist industry, unique environment, and more. The Space Coast Transportation Planning Organization is currently developing a plan to define potential transportation-specific shocks and stressors, identify vulnerable corridors, and recommend strategies to improve the adaptability/recovery of the system.

Resiliency Shocks and Stressors

Shocks and stressors impact and hinder or transportation system. A shock is an acute event that immediately threatens a community, such as a car crash or hurricane, whereas a stressor is a continuous or re-occurring issues that impacts a community on a longer-term basis, such as aging infrastructure or sea-level rise. Learn more in the videos below.

Transportation Resiliency Master Plan

Transportation Resiliency Master Plan

The Transportation Resiliency Master Plan, adopted in October 2022, analyzed the vulnerability of our roadways to hurricane winds and storm surge, sea level rise, coastal erosion, wildfire and smoke, and flooding.  It also considered the importance of the roadway because of its access to critical destinations, such as the airport and community assets, such as a fire department, as well as what communities are most at risk. Following the analysis, the master plan considered potential next steps and completed a funding sources analysis to consider how we could fund making our roadway networks more vulnerable.

The plan can be viewed in three ways:

  1. Within an ArcGIS web-based map
  2. Through Executive Summaries for each impact, shock, or stressor, which can be found below.
  3. The full final reports, which can be found below.
