Climate Adaptation and Infrastructure Resilience Plan (CAIRP)

The NCTD CAIRP aims to build a more resilient, equitable, and sustainable transit system by addressing the impacts of worsening natural disasters on North County's transportation infrastructure.

Drawing from state and regional best practices, the CAIRP will identify innovative solutions to protect transit services from climate hazard impacts, prioritize vulnerable communities, and ensure cost-effective, forward-thinking investments.

Key objectives of the plan include:
  1. ​Enhancing the resiliency of the passenger rail and bus system in Southern California.
  2. Protecting the regional economy from climate and seismic impacts by providing resilient and redundant emergency mobility options.
  3. Ensuring the mobility of Southern Californians, including the most vulnerable, disadvantaged and transit-dependent populations.

By aligning with state, regional, and local climate goals, the CAIRP will build upon existing agency knowledge, address evolving climate science data gaps, and create a comprehensive strategy to protect transit infrastructure, reduce risks, and enhance community resilience.

Through proactive planning and community engagement, NCTD is committed to advancing regional and state climate goals by providing a resilient transit network that reduces air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, roadway vehicle miles traveled, and roadway congestion.
