Brazil’s Sectoral Plan for Transport aims to increase the climate resilience of transport infrastructure and logistics systems by integrating climate adaptation into planning and asset management, reducing vulnerability to extreme weather events, and ensuring the continuity of mobility and transport services. The main objectives are:
- Strengthen the adaptive capacity and resilience of transport infrastructure and services to climate change.
- Reduce vulnerabilities of roads, railways, ports, airports, waterways, and logistics corridors to climate-related hazards.
- Integrate climate risk assessments and adaptation measures into transport planning, investment, operation, and maintenance.
- Improve the safety, reliability, and continuity of transport and logistics services during extreme weather events.
- Enhance monitoring, risk management, and decision-making processes to support climate-resilient transport systems.
- Support long-term economic development and territorial connectivity through resilient and sustainable transport infrastructure.
