A study was conducted to analyze the future climate risks on Metrolink’s systemwide infrastructure and facilities, including those impacts anticipated on surrounding populations and disadvantaged communities.
The climate adaptation implementation plan is critical as Metrolink has begun a 10-year investment in a slate of projects knows as the Southern California Optimized Rail Expansion (SCORE) Program. To safeguard these investments over their useful life, which ranges from 20-100 years. It is essential that they be protected from expected climate change impacts.
