Abstract:
The new Moving Ahead for

Progress in the 21st Century

Act (MAP-21), passed by the

U.S Senate and pending at

the U.S. House of Representatives, requests the national freight network to

“incorporate concepts of performance and accountability into the operation and

maintenance of the national freight network” and requires the U.S. Department

of Transportation (USDOT) and all states to “establish performance measures for

freight movement.” Currently, the major freight modes have diff erent metrics

that can be used to neither measure a freight network with multiple modes nor

select freight improvement projects from an intermodal perspective.
