Rising above the tide
When it was determined that certain stretches of S.R. 37 along North San Francisco Bay in California were at risk of failing due to sea-level rise, a set of adaptive scenarios were proposed to protect the route. The Road Ecology Center (REC) at the University of California-Davis developed a generalized planning and assessment process to help state departments of transportation (DOTs) adapt, and S.R. 37 proved to be a worthy test ground, as this article documents.
