Synopsis: Increasing the resilience of transportation networks affects transportation operations and many other networks and systems. For example, the transportation network is the backbone of supply chains that produce, transport, and deliver critical products. NCHRP Web-Only Document 391: Resilience in Transportation Networks, Volume 1: Resilience Case Studies, from TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program, highlights frameworks, tools, methods, and data needs. NCHRP Web-Only Document 391: Resilience in Transportation Networks, Volume 2: Network Resilience Toolkit and Techniques, summarizes tools for assessing the resilience of physical infrastructure as well as institutional arrangements for supporting resilience. A companion publication is NCHRP Research Report 1118: Incorporating Resilience into Transportation Networks, which provides a guide for state departments of transportation and other transportation agencies seeking to define and strategically integrate resilience into transportation networks and network planning.
