Abstract

In order to optimally allocate resources to help ensure that transport infrastructure networks continue to provide acceptable levels of service immediately, or as fast as possible, following the occurrence of extreme events, the resilience of the infrastructure need to be estimated. In this paper, a guideline is presented, based on (Adey et al., 2019), that allows managers to measure the resilience of infrastructure networks. The guideline emphasizes that to this scope it is required to define clearly: (i) the transport system, and the way to consistently measure (ii) the service and (iii) the resilience. Particular attention is paid on the fact that resilience can be measured with various degrees of precision depending on the specific problem to be addressed, the time-frame at disposition and the expertise available. Guide are then given on how to do this either using simulation, indicators, or the percentage of fulfilment of the resilience indicators.
