Resilience: the case for investment – what would you prioritise?

  • Newcastle upon Tyne
  • Northumbria University

The resilience of the North East’s infrastructure is being threatened by climate change, bringing ever increasing extremes of weather. The region was almost cut off from the rest of the UK during last year’s floods that severed road and rail links.  How are civil engineers improving the resilience of our energy supplies from the threat of terrorism and vandalism which could impact on our infrastructure networks, industry and homes?
