2. WAKE UP THE SLEEPING GIANT Dr. Walter Hays, Global Alliance For Disaster Reduction

3. APPENDIX A: RESTORATION OF TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE

4. IT IS TIME FOR A “GLOBAL WAKE UP CALL” UNDER- STAND IDENT- IFY HEAR PERSON- ALIZE ACT 1990-2010 PERIOD OF INTEGRATION NOW WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY 21 ST CENTURY PERIOD OF IMPLEMEN- TATION

5. THE SLEEPING GIANT IS YOU (AND ME) WAKE UP!

6. THE 21 ST CENTURY’S WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY GLOBAL SOCIETAL RESILIENCE WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO ACCELERATE THE RECOVERY PROCESS AFTER EACH RECORD OR NEAR-RECORD DISASTER OF THE 21 ST CENTURY

7. WHAT IS THE PAYOFF OF GLOBAL SOCIETAL RESILIENCE FAILURE: WE WILL HAVE DISASTERS DURING THE 21 ST CENTURY THAT WILL MAKE 1990—2010’S DISASTERS LOOK LIKE “A WALK IN THE PARK.” SUCCESS: !!!!!

8. STRATEGY: TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE UNIQUENESS OF RECOVERY THE POLITICAL and MEDIA SPOTLIGHT IS ON ALL DECISIONS AND ACTIVITIES TOP PRIORITY: RESTORATION TO NORMAL (OR BETTER) AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE INTERNATIONAL ASSISTANCE, INSURANCE PAYOUTS, AND DONORS: ALWAYS AVAILABLE

9. TYPICAL TOP PRIORTIES DURING RECOVERY 1)RESTORATION OF TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE 2)RESTORATION OF ESSENTIAL FACILITIES-- SCHOOLS

10. RESTORATION OF TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS AFTER A DISASTER A PRIORITY FOR SOCIETAL RESILIENCE

11. A NATURAL DISASTER USUALLY PARALYZES LOCAL, REGIONAL, AND INTERNATIONAL TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS

12. LOSS OF FUNCTION OF A TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM CAN PARALYZE LOCAL, REGIONAL, AND INTERNATIONAL EMERGENCY RESPONSE

13. TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS essential functionProvide an essential function to society by moving people and goods from point “A” to point “B” substantial share of a country’s GDPRepresent a substantial share of a country’s GDP (11% for USA.)

14. TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS Types: Roads, railroads, mass transit, water-borne and air transport systems, and pipelines Scales: urban, regional, national, and international.

15. ELEMENTS OF TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS Built infrastructureBuilt infrastructure roads, runways, airports, terminals, railways, stations, canals, ports, traffic control centers, maintenance and operation facilities, pipelines, etc. Operations sideOperations side vehicles, traffic safety and control, power, commun- ications and signaling, maintenance, transportation operators, etc.

16. FEATURES THAT AFFECT RESILIENCY  Extend over broad geographical areas  Large number of components that are subject to either POINT or AREA failure.

17. FEATURES THAT AFFECT RESILIENCY (Continued)  Roadways and railways frequently follow river valleys (easier and cheaper to build)  Utilities, including pipelines, often follow right-of-ways (reduces legal problems and costs)

18. FEATURES THAT AFFECT RESILIENCY (Continued)  Multiple entities have responsibility for or oversight of the system  Typically owned by public entities and publicly funded  Usually self insured

19. FEATURES THAT AFFECT RESILIENCY (Continued)  Different modes of trans- portation are interconnected  They interact with each other and other elements of a community’s built environ- ment; hence, the name, Lifeline systems”.
