Enhancing Climate-Resilient Infrastructure: Strategies for Green Highway Construction and Maintenance.

In an era defined by escalating climate uncertainties, the call to fortify infrastructure against environmental disruptions has emerged as a critical global priority. Highways, serving as indispensable conduits for societal mobility and economic prosperity, face escalating vulnerabilities amid the mounting impacts of climate change. This research delves into innovative strategies aimed at bolstering highway resilience by embracing sustainable green construction and maintenance practices, grounding the pursuit of climate adaptation in principles of sustainability. The palpable consequences of climate variability on transportation networks underscore the urgent need to reimagine highway infrastructure paradigms. Extreme weather events, shifting climatic patterns, and environmental stressors converge to emphasize the vulnerability of these critical arteries. Therefore, proactive measures, infused with eco_x0002_conscious methodologies, are essential to fortify these lifelines against disruption.
