  1. Climate Change Adaptation Workshop Our greatest risks and how we identified them in the project: Highways and Transport

  2. The WorkshopAims:- To increase understanding of Climate Change risks, the risk management process and the adaptation actions required for Highways & Transportation- To have worked through the process to reach a detailed risk assessment and management plan for the most significant risks.LCLIP and Case StudiesCWAC Risk Assessment MethodologyWorkshop 1 – Identifying & Quantifying the RisksWorkshop 2 – Assessing Existing Risk Management PlansWorkshop 3 – Identifying Risk Management Options

  3. Scoring • Two scores Current - where you are now (with existing controls) Target - where you will be (with proposed actions) • Risk Score = Likelihood x Impact Likelihood of occurrence happening Impact if it does occur • Scores are 1(low) to 4 (high) • It is the relative scores that are important not the absolute

  4. Prioritising Risks Housekeeping These risks have a high likelihood of happening do lower impact; they require routine management Primary These risks have high impact and likelihood; these will require primary attention Likelihood Contingency These risks have high impact but lower likelihood; they are catastrophic events Non threatening LOW Impact HIGH

  5. Deterioration of Highways Assets: roads bridges etc. • Risk from maintenance: lack of and increasing need, inspections • Impact from weather events, especially interacting events • Increased accidents etc • Related consequences: Ground shrinkage, subsidence: landslides etc caused by drought and lower water tables Identifying the Risks:

  6. More Risks: Knowledge • Knowledge of vulnerabilities, internally and externally • Incomplete assets understanding • Flood mapping data • Surface Water Management Plans • Information held by United Utilities, Env Agency, Emergency Services etc.

  7. Long Term Risks • Local Development Plan: future development: industry, housing, critical infrastructure etc. • Local Transport Plan 3 • Existing Areas at risk: major sites Sealand Road Industrial/ Retail • Over 1,700 businesses in Cheshire & Warrington are at risk of 1:100 year flooding

  8. Next Steps • Report to Director • Action plan • Ownership/ responsibilities • Member engagement • Risk Management session • Presentation to groups • Budget implications
