Abstract:This paper presents the literature on conducting truck travel surveys in the U.S. and abroad. It includes past experiences, as well as current practices in
conducting truck surveys. The primary purpose of this paper is to present
compiled information on truck surveys and truck travel demand forecasting
experiences to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) to help evaluate
the need for new truck/freight planning tools. The paper reports truck/freight
survey experiences from Councils of Government (COGs), metropolitan planning
organizations (MPOs), for which MTC is one, and other state and regional
transportation planning agencies, both inside and outside of the country. The
paper does not attempt to review literature on freight mode-choice surveys
and/or modeling efforts (competition between rail and truck, for example).
