Trunk Road Adaptation Plan
The Trunk Road Adaptation Plan (TRAP) is linked to the Transport Scotland’s Approach to Climate Change Adaptation and Resilience (ACCAR), which aims to provide an approach to adaptation to address the key climate risks affecting Scotland’s transport system. The TRAP screening aligns with the ACCAR Vision for “A transport system which is well adapted and prepared for current and future impacts of climate change, safe for all users, reliable for everyday journeys, and resilient to weather related disruption.”
The TRAP provides an action focussed approach to achieving this outcome, where it addresses road safety challenges, maintaining a reliable Trunk Road Network and focuses on resilient infrastructure to ensure the functionality of essential routes.
