Identify transportation routes that can remain reliably traversable during severe flood events.
Develop a system that allows community members to voluntarily report obstructions (e.g., through an app).
Employ cameras and sensors to help monitor and prepare for a variety of storm events. For example, sensors could be used to monitor rainfall, runoff,
Road shoulders typically do not have the subsurface structure built out to the extent that roads do, so improving road shoulders can help provide additional
