Randomized trial identifies risk-mitigation priorities for road networks, suggesting optimal resource allocation in municipalities.

This research aims to develop a framework for prioritizing risk mitigation of road networks impacted by slow-moving landslides at a municipal level.
Integrated assessment of landslide exposure with network criticality analysis.
Assessment utilized a matrix approach with susceptibility index, displacement measurements from A-DInSAR, and damage severity from Google Street View.
Applied methodology to road networks in three municipalities in Basilicata region, Italy.
31% of the road network intersects with slow-moving landslides.
Only 5% of the road stretches are designated as very high priority for risk mitigation.
The framework enhances resource allocation for local administrations in managing landslide risks.

Pecoraro et al. (2026) studied this question.
