ACRP Insight Event - Improving Extreme Weather Resiliency of Airport Infrastructure

  Project Data
Funds: $135,000
Staff Responsibility: Jordan Christensen
Research Agency: Converge Strategies
Principal Investigator: Meredith Pringle
Effective Date: 7/12/2024
Completion Date: 10/12/2025

Airports are experiencing the effects of extreme weather events with growing frequency, including more and increasingly severe hurricanes and floods as well as an increasing frequency of extreme temperatures. Airports must consider the effects of these events as they strive to ensure their facilities and infrastructure are resilient. A key prerequisite to this is understanding the latest research and practice on the topic.

OBJECTIVE

The objective of this project is to conduct an in-person ACRP Insight Event for airport-industry practitioners, relevant stakeholders, and subject matter experts (SMEs) to discuss the key factors related to planning for and responding to extreme weather events at airports.

STATUS: Contract has been executed. Insight Event date TBD.
