Resilient Transportation in the Face of Sea Level Rise

Join us for a dynamic panel discussion on Resilient Transportation in the Face of Sea Level Rise.

This event will feature perspectives from public agencies leading sea level rise adaptation efforts across the Bay Area—ranging from Resilient SR 37 and the San Francisco Waterfront Resilience Program to adaptation planning at TAM and BART.

Panelists will share lessons learned from implementing resilience projects at different scales and contexts. The discussion will explore what effective coordination looks like under the Regional Shoreline Adaptation Plan (RSAP) and other regional efforts, the importance of building coalitions, and key considerations for navigating the funding landscape.

We’ll also highlight how transportation projects can deliver multiple benefits—integrating nature-based solutions and expanding public access.

Don’t miss this opportunity to join the conversation and explore opportunities at the intersection of transportation and climate resilience.
