The Resilience Network Report

 

 

The Government Response to the 2014 Transport Resilience Review identified a need for local authorities to develop a resilience network for their highway network. This network is expected to be based on risk and need as well as the road classifications of the network.

 

This report identifies a resilience network to ensure that during extreme weather conditions the access to key services and the necessary support to the economy is maintained. Extreme weather is considered to be: Heatwaves, High Winds, Heavy Rain and Flooding, Extreme Cold, Snow and Ice. The network identified will also be of relevance for other incidents where the prioritisation of route clearance/repair is needed.
