Bill overview
This bill requires the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) to conduct a more comprehensive assessment of how climate change impacts communities, not just transportation infrastructure. Specifically, it mandates the department to identify key community resilience indicators and include a community resilience assessment in its climate change vulnerability reports. This assessment will evaluate the broader social and economic effects on vulnerable populations and prioritize strategies to protect those communities during climate-related disruptions, such as extreme heat or floods.
