Disaster Ready Infrastructure Act of 2026

This bill changes federal transportation planning law. It would require metropolitan transportation plans to identify which existing transportation facilities are most vulnerable to natural disasters that occur frequently in the area. The plans would also have to identify which facilities are most necessary to keep operating during or soon after a disaster, and the improvement projects needed to keep them operating. Statewide transportation plans would have to include the same identification for natural disasters that occur frequently in the state.
