Abstract

In 2021 the UK government published a review of lessons learned by the UK highways sector from extreme weather emergencies. As described in this paper, the review focused on the sector’s engagement with integrated emergency management and managing highways as critical ‘lifeline’ infrastructure. Focusing on robustness, reliability, redundancy, rapidity, resourcefulness and recovery, the review identified the need to develop consistent rapid impact assessment reporting, linked to regional- and national-level mutual aid contingencies. Underpinning this was the need to strengthen highway engineers’ ability to ‘prepare for their worst day, rather than their average day’.

“生命线”高速公路网络的综合应急管理:互操作性的经验教训

2021年，英国政府发布了一份关于英国高速公路部门从极端天气紧急情况中吸取教训的综述。如本文所述，审查的重点是该部门参与综合应急管理和将公路作为关键的“生命线”基础设施进行管理的情况。审查的重点是稳健性、可靠性、冗余性、快速性、智谋性和复原性，并确定需要编制与区域和国家一级的紧急互助事件相联系的一致的快速影响评估报告。其基础是需要加强公路工程师“为最糟糕的一天做准备，而不是为平常的一天做准备”的能力。
