How is climate change affecting our transportation system?
A. Increased freeze thaw cycle reduces structural life expectancy B. Increased temperatures leads to pavement and rail bucklingC. Increased rainfall/intensity leads to more flooding and associated bridge, culvert and roadway washoutsD. Increased wind force increase scour impact on bridgesE. All of the above and more

Vermont Public and Private Annual Expenditures on Current Transportation System
80% renewables by 20301. Electrify entire fleet2. Increase efficient driving 3. Support and increase programs and infrastructure to reduce vehicle
miles traveled but not necessarily travel:• Support CarShare Vermont and similar programs• TDM measures at both employer and household level• Complete streets• Use of social networks for car pooling (increase vehicle occupancy
rate)• Build the missing links of paths, sidewalks, bike lanes• Shift the 10% of all trips of less than a mile that are currently made
by personal vehicle to active transportation• Smart growth• Improve transit options
4. Adopt Vehicle to Grid technology
Potential Energy Savings from Transportation Efficiency
• Employer based TDM: SOV trip reduction of 25%
• Household-based TDM: SOV trip reduction of 2-6%
By 2020, an AEV fleet of 50,0000 in Vermont could represent a power resource of 300 MW with the ability to store 1,000 MWh of energy.
