Call for Proposals

Development of an International Climate Change Adaptation Framework for Road Infrastructure

The World Road Association is launching a call for proposal for the development of a framework to address climate change adaptation that will set out a process for practical use by road assets owners and managers.

The purpose of this framework is to provide guidance for users to apply in addressing the impacts of climate change on road assets and identifying and incorporating adaptation strategies into decision-making processes in practice. The framework should be applicable for all countries whatever their status of development; it is expected to be flexible enough to apply at both the national and local level. This framework will be specific to climate change adaptation for road transportation and transport infrastructure.

The deadline for submission of a proposal is June 30th, 2014.

Products will be delivered in English within six months of the commencement of the project.
