Abstract:DDOT asked the Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe) to conduct an
analysis of existing truck traffic conditions in the District, successful truck management
practices from other areas, stakeholder interests and opinions, and security concerns. Using
this background information, Volpe has developed a set of recommendations for improved
truck management in the District, including creating officially-designated truck routes,
adding a Motor Carrier Office (MCO) within DDOT that would coordinate all motor carrier
management issues, and provide better on- and off-street loading/unloading facilities
through a combination of parking rule changes, parking enforcement, and zoning rules
regarding off-street loading docks.
