CDSubject(s): Online resources: Bibl.nr: VTI 2011.0119 RefLocation: Notes: Ingår i VTI 2011.0119. Plac: Expeditionen, referensmärkta samlingsverk Abstract: Effects of climate change o lot of work is on-going in many European countries with regard to the impact of changing climate on roads and how to deal with the consequences either through mitigation or adaptation. And even though climate change predictions are very much in focus at present, it can still be a challenge for road administrations to prioritise mitigation actions, when several other things are on the agenda, e.g. lack of funding. We hope that by having examples of models and strategies to meet these challenges, it might be easier for road administrations to take the next step in preparing for future climate changes. The background report focuses on information gathering, in order to support and create a reliable base for Report 3 "The Blue Spot Model" and Report 4 "Inspection and maintenance. All this data are not needed to be displayed in the respective reports, but the information and data is important knowledge to provide, and it is consequently displayed in this background report. The background report has been prepared for researchers and others interested in additional background material on the subject.n existing pre-stressed concrete bridge.
