Case Study 2: ALPS

Aim

Provide stakeholders with tools to manage the potential cascading and compounding effects of cross-border transportation disruptions.

Why

Small events can have far-reaching consequences, often unpredictably threatening the stability of critical infrastructure.

Why Alps

Infrastructure across the Alps linking northern and southern Europe is essential for local communities and cross-border transportation. Global environmental change is already more pronounced in mountainous areas, with scenarios predicting more extreme events.

Where do we want to go
