Teema: Re: Euroopa Liidu uuele kohanemise strateegiale avaliku konsultatsiooni sisend
Lugupeetud Maris Arro
Vaatasime Maanteeametis läbi ja EK poolt saadetud küsimustiku ja saadame omapoolse sisendi Maanteeameti haldusala relevantsetele küsimustele
In your place of living, are you aware of any of the following actions which have been implemented recently with the intention to prepare for the likely effects of climate change? Other….
How Estonian Road Administration/Estonian transport sector has responded?
* Public GIS online map application (tarktee.ee) on road weather conditions, warnings, restrictions
* paving gravel roads and improving water drainage systems to cope with softer winters
* introducing VMS traffic management and warning systems on state roads
* increased capacity to monitor weather conditions on the roads (68 weatherstations on state roads, mobile weather station on certain bus routes)
* Freezing/temperature sensors in road surface (frequency of freezing-melting cycles is increasing)
* Higher maintenance levels of state road maintenance contracts
* Monitoring and enforcement of weight restrictions of lorries
* Testing new climate resilient road construction materials and design solutions (integrating innovative storm water systems, heat resistance, surface durability)
* increased co-operation with Police, Rescue services and other partners in communication, warning systems and crisis response
* AC on passenger trains and new buses
* integrating environmental and climate policy goals into transport and road sector strategies
To what extent do you agree with the proposed new objectives of an EU Adaptation Strategy, as stated below?
Maanteeamet peab väga oluliseks järgmisi teemasid:
* To help make the EU a climate-resilient society, adapted to the unavoidable impacts of climate change, with reinforced adaptive capacity and minimal vulnerability.
* Increase focus on Solutions (in addition to understanding)
Increase focus on Innovation (in addition to research)
* Increase focus on Implementation (in addition to planning)
Increase focus on Prevention (in addition to ex-post action)
* Climate and risk proofing of infrastructure and investments
* Incorporating climate risk management into fiscal frameworks
* Preventing climate risks
* Providing tailored adaptation guidance and peer-topeer knowledge exchange to public authorities and nonstate actors.
* Supporting resilience investments and natural disaster insurance penetration through EU and Member State policies
* Increasing infrastructure resilience through an extended use of EU climate proofing guidance based on the latest IPCC reports and scientific findings.
* Providing tailored adaptation guidance and peer-topeer knowledge exchange to public authorities and nonstate actors. Strengthening the climate risk and vulnerability assessment at EU level, including on the EU outermost regions.
Finally, you have the opportunity to provide additional information. Please roovide any further information that you believe would be useful for preparing the EU’s new Adaptation Strategy.
Oluline, et EL toetaks rahaliselt piiriüleste, liikmesriigi ja regionaalse tasandi taristuprojektide kliimakindlaid lahendusi ja ka olemasoleva taristu kliimamuutustele kohandamist (mitte ainult uue rajamisel)
Lugupidamisega
