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).
