1790 Marco Civera et al. / Procedia Structural Integrity 78 (2026) 1783–1790 In brief, the uncorrected RN efficiency index monotonically increases as = 0.43, 0.44, 0.55, and 0.60 for DS1, DS2, DS3, and DS4, in the same order. With respect to , =0.64 , these correspond to a reduction equal to -33%, -31%, -14%, and -7%. Instead, the corrected RN efficiency index monotonically decreases ( , = 0.429, 0.095, 0.027, and 0.005 ). 5. Conclusions The results of this study should be seen as complementary to what was described in the Authors’ previous publication on the same case study (Miano et al., 2024). In that first research work, the focus was on ensuring the road network (RN) operability in the immediate aftermath of the earthquake, i.e. in the very short term. That is to say, that first work reflected a ‘transportation engineering’ perspective on traffic resilience. Under that assumption, only the most relevant DS was considered for each of the two seismic scenarios. That led to the potentially counterintuitive outcome of a larger drop in efficiency after a moderate seismic event rather than a larger one. That outcome was due to the binary classification (road disruption yes/no) followed in the procedure. In this work, instead, the focus is not on the very short term but the short and medium term (days/weeks), considering that lower DS can be more easily and rapidly recovered. This standpoint is intended to link traffic resilience with the conventional definition of structural resilience, i.e., time to recover and restore post-event..Based on all these considerations, the results highlight how the proposed weights can be applied to consider different time horizons after the first earthquake strike on the infrastructures of the RN and the surrounding buildings. It is thus suggested to use the uncorrected resilience index of the previous work when comparing DSs of the same level, while the proposed correction should be applied when considering different DSs, to compensate for the difference in expected reopening time.
