Hillsborough County MPO: Vulnerability Assessment and Adaptation Pilot Project
This study is one of 19 Pilots across the country conducted under the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA's) second-round climate change vulnerability assessment program, and was funded in part through a FHWA grant. The objective is to identify cost-effective strategies to mitigate and manage the risks of coastal and inland inundation for incorporation into the Hillsborough County Metropolitan Planning Organization's (MPO’s) 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP), into the County’s Post Disaster Redevelopment Plan (PDRP), and into transportation planning and decision-making processes more generally. This project builds on previous resilience and emergency preparedness planning work performed by agencies in the Tampa Bay region, and leverages the insights and expertise of a broad host of partners, most notably the Hillsborough County Local Mitigation Strategy _Working Group (LMS_WG).
