Road and railway networks are fundamental to societal functioning, but are systemically vulnerable to disruption by natural hazards, including floods. To explore how targeted climate adaptation of transportation infrastructure may reduce systemic vulnerability, this studentship will measure and model connectivity of UK transportation networks under increasing extremes in coastal flooding
Travel time in transport networks is not constant, but entails an element of variability that can be an important source of time losses. This results in uncertainty when attempting to predict it, and this is a concern for travellers, as it can cause early or, more critically, late arrival at the destination.
