Security of Road Transport Networks - Identifying and Assessing Critical Road Infrastructure
Improving the security of critical road infrastructure is a major task for owners and operators of tunnels and bridges in the European TEN-T Network (Trans-European Networks of Transport) (1). Up to now, there has not been a systematic procedure for identifying and assessing critical infrastructure objects and selecting appropriate protection measures. The European Commission (EC) Framework Programme 7 (FP 7) project SeRoN – Security of Road Transport Networks - for the first time presents an innovative methodology in order to support road owners and operators in handling this complex task. This paper describes the methodology and final project results in detail by giving an introduction into its practical application.
