Climate-proof road opens in Kosrae, FSM

8 JUNE 2014

The Pacific Adaptation to Climate Change (PACC) project in the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) celebrated a major achievement on 29 May, with the official opening of a climate-proof road on the island of Kosrae. The improved coastal road is designed to withstand high tides and heavy rainfall, with worsening conditions over the next decades factored into the engineering. As well as delivering a much-needed all-weather transport route for the people of Tafunsak municipality, the project serves as a regional demonstration of how coastal infrastructure can be climate-proofed.
