The six topics highlighted for consideration by meeting participants consisted of: 1) Future markets for public-private partnerships, 2) Implications of alternative fuels on transportation, 3) Policies to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with freight movements, 4) Linking transportation and land use, 5) Achieving intermodal interoperability for freight movements Impacts of higher fuel costs.
