Storm Damage Reduction on Coastal Roadways
 
Coastal roadways are those roads influenced by their presence in or near the water level, wave, and sand transport environment unique to a coast. Many different natural processes and forces impact roads near the coast such as shoreline retreat, storm surge, wave action, and high velocity flows during overtopping of the roadway. These forces can severely damage or destroy the roadway if protection is not implemented. This talk discusses the mechanisms of the most frequent causes of damage to coastal roadways and methods for protecting against this damage. Examples of one type of protection schemes - revetments - are presented and important design considerations for revetments are discussed.
