Climate change can result in transportation infrastructure damages and affect supply chain capacity and efficiency. These disruptions can be prevented, if future climate change impacts are assessed and relevant adaptation measures are implemented in the transport sector.
In this context, ESCWA and UNECE co-organized the “Mediterranean Conference for Raising awareness on adaptation of transport infrastructure to climate change and on setting up an effective intervention programme”.
The conference on 15 and 16 May emphasized the importance of using climate projections effectively to assess future climate impacts on transportation systems. Participants also identified necessary adaptation measures to prevent future transport disruptions.
