Projected climatic changes, such as changing precipitation patterns, temperatures and sea levels, contribute to pressures on human well-being and the functioning of infrastructure systems . Furthermore, risks evolve due to macro-scale drivers of change such as urbanisation, economic development, land use changes and other emergent factors . Infrastructure networks are rapidly growing around the world . Since the quality and accessibility of infrastructure services are varied, it is important to understand how climate change poses different kinds of risk on them.
