Abstract
Analysis of the impact of climate risks on railway infrastructure and development of a system of measures to adapt transport infrastructure to climate change. The object of the study is Russian transport infrastructure, analyzed using the method of identifying the peculiarities of the functioning of the transport infrastructure, taking into account regional specifics. An analysis of climate risk factors, the effects of climate risk factors, as well as the impact on railway infrastructure was carried out with the aim of integrated management of natural hazards and the development of adaptation measures to climate change. It is shown that improving measures and strategies for adapting railway transport to a changing climate may include the following systems: a system for preventing accidents and incidents; monitoring system for environmental parameters and infrastructure facilities; measures to protect railway transport facilities; introducing changes to production standards; relocation of infrastructure facilities when it is impossible to operate them in a given territory.
