Approach
Allow for increased landslide frequency by relocating roads and structures.
Tactics
- Close and decommission roads in areas of high landslide risk.
- Locate new construction or reroute roads away from areas of high landslide risk.
- Collaborate with partners to compare data of current damage with data on soil moisture and landforms to identify sensitive areas.
