# Transport (adaptation) ### Climate change adaptation in transport includes: * **Infrastructure**: Protecting, maintaining, and strengthening transportation infrastructure from climate change damage. This can include: * Using new materials that can withstand extreme temperatures * Climate proofing underground tunnels * Relocating infrastructure that's past its lifetime or can be severely damaged * Restoring natural floodplains * Consolidating hill slopes near roads and railways with tree planting and maintenance * **Operations**: Adjusting services, equipment, and procedures to adapt to the future effects of climate change. This can include: * Considering higher temperatures when tendering for new vehicles * Upgrading older equipment * Developing contingency plans * Using real-time information systems * **Routes**: Avoiding new mass transit corridors in flood-prone areas * **Fuel**: Using alternative fuels in vehicles to help conserve fuel and reduce emissions * **Drainage**: Improving drainage or earthworks * **Stormwater management**: Using proper stormwater management techniques --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
