A Model for Efficiently Allocating Resources to Mitigate Wildfire Risk along California Roadways

Research Product Type
Policy Brief
The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection produced a Community Wildfire Prevention and Mitigation Report in 2019 with a methodology to assess wildfire risk. Caltrans and researchers at the University of California, Davis applied these methods to develop a highway-segment-specific prioritization model for vegetation management within highway rights-of-way.
