• Abstract:
  The NM DOT Research Bureau requested that the ATR Institute (ATRI) assist them in research which would identify the factors for establishing freight corridors for rail and truck across New Mexico; gain an understanding of multimodal planning for the freight industry, including freight patterns; and to anticipate and best utilize existing freight infrastructure. The research would provide recommendations to integrate design, planning, and maintenance to meet freight projections and future freight operations. The freight corridor concept would include NM DOT utilization of freight projections within the design plans, utilization plans, and maintenance projections. The research would look at a concept for monitoring freight corridors with consideration for public safety and provide a brief benefit analysis for multimodal freight corridors from other state studies.
