Abstract Reliable assessment of the resilience of transportation networks to natural disasters is a prominent issue. This paper investigates how the spatial feature of natural disasters affects the resilience of transportation networks. Our research reveals that incorporating spatial feature data on disaster impacts is highly important for assessing network resilience. More precisely, the uncertainty linked to the estimation of the resilience index in the context of disaster-induced interruptions with spatial feature significantly exceeds that of conventional approaches. We present an illustrative case of a transportation network affected by a hurricane. The results reveal that the improved characteristics of disaster-induced outages greatly alter the manner in which the network recovers, including changes in emergency system characteristics. Our research indicates that extant methodologies employed for evaluating the resilience of critical infrastructure potentially inflate the confidence levels pertaining to network recovery predictions, primarily owing to insufficient attention given to the spatial configuration of disasters.
